A Proud Member of the Reality-Based Community
About Me :
I'm a grownup nerd living in the Boston burbs. I write computer programs for a living and plays for fun.
I'm married to a wonderful woman, and we share a nice little house with our daughter and our cats.
I'm a humanist, a technologist, an artist, and an idealist. I believe in reason, freedom, love, equality,
and democracy. (Did I mention that I'm
an idealist? I did, OK.)
I'm also a pragmatist and an empiricist. I reject ideology and dogma, especially when they conflict with
practical facts (i.e., pretty much always). I particularly hate willful ignorance, which tends to go hand-in-hand
with ideology and dogma.
Like the alignment of the planets, this blog gets updated as I have the time, inspiration, and inclination to do so.

Liberal Oasis
Looks like I'm going to have to add LiberalOasis to my regular web-tour. I heard about them via Air America Radio a couple of days ago, but I only got around to checking them out in a cursory way today. It looks like a very good portal site: links to practically everywhere in the vast left-wing conspiracy. I will have to explore this site in depth, as my copious free time allows.
While I'm on the topic, I'd just like to mention that Air America Radio is great to listen to. Since I'm in the Boston area, and they don't have a local affiliate (yet), I can only listen to them on the Internet or over my XM satellite radio (channel 167). (Apparently XM has packaged Air America Radio as "America Left", and cobbled together another channel, "America Right" (166), from the existing syndicated behemoths of AM talk radio, like Michael "Savage" Weiner.) I love XM, and I'm enjoying Air America Radio, especially Al Franken's show "The O'Franken Factor."
