A Priori Concepts

Subjectivity is truth. The crowd is untruth.

Moving

I’m moving over to wordpress for a while. I can’t post videos on that older MovableType site and it’s on a free yahoo server that keeps crashing and I’m tired of it.

I was using this blog to store some old videos from You Tube last year and to experiment with S.E.O.

It may take a while for the vid’s to fade into the background.

  • Swim Center Scheme Passes Vote By Council Lacking Integrity
    I am interrupting my break because the Greensboro City Council voted tonight to borrow against future hotel tax revenues to pay for the shortfall in the swim center funding.  This means the project will proceed with more taxpayer dollars required.  And the approach chosen merely augments and accentuates the utter lack of integrity this council has displayed […]
  • Crowd wisdom has Hagan a 'yes'
    Lots of people seem to think U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan will eventually vote "yes" on the health care reform bill moving through the Senate. In an admittedly unscientific measure, Congress.org (which you may recognize as the new home of our former colleague Ryan Teague Beckwith) asked readers to pick how all 100 senators will vote on health care reform.Th […]
