- Gaining
Clarity in the world that really exists
- Wednesday, February 5, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Since the development of language it is pretty certain that the constant wonder to
every living person is "just how much of what we think is happening really happening?"
We do not answer this question but poke around at the problems it causes for us all.

Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
|
Introspective analysis of the way you learn and cope is very important.
After all it is not how people say you should do things, it is how you do things
that matters, so be observant and see what you are up to.

Ensign Notes
|
| References: A serious problem, we want most articles to have support and whenever
possible include references in our material. The complexity of citing a reference
be it APA or MLA is confusing as we want to be able to show all references,
no matter the source, newspaper article, book, web site all in the same format. For
now that format is: Author, title, date, publisher. If it is archived on this site
so it remains current through time it will have (PDF) after the date. |
