First day of spring! (March 2010)

`READIN`

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.

— John Stuart Mill (view other epigraphs)

READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

🦋 Scenes From a Multiverse

I happened on a new web-comic today, new for me and only a few months past its inception: it is Jonathan Rosenberg's Scenes From a Multiverse. Rosenberg also draws Goats, funny but currently on hiatus. (Thanks for the link, dad!) Multiverse is updating every day Monday-Friday and has an interactive feature where readers can vote on which parallell universe to revisit next week -- currently the "Sciencemastering Lair" universe appears to be the most popular, veering as Rosenberg warns, "dangerously close to a storyline."
