Liberalism is trust of the people tempered by prudence. Conservatism is distrust of the people tempered by fear.
- William Gladstone, four-time British Prime Minister
An intermittently maintained placeholder for random clips, bits, observations, paranoid fantasies, links, quotes, and other stuff which would otherwise emailed randomly. Pseudonymous to respect the fiction of internet anonymity. Who am I? A somewhat disgruntled (not yet curmudgeonly) fellow, inconsistent, contrary, generally optimistic, still idealistic (some say naive) explorer of the world and its wonders. Sometimes it's hard to know what to do - is this Blog a mere substitute for real action?
