New Content Coming: April 11, 2011
With my BA Essay complete, I will now have more time to write. I have lots of backlogged articles that were not posted between March and April, and I will start posting those today.
I will post some conclusions and excerpts from the BA Essay itself later.

(RPG. Sheridan Lardner, June 2009)
Fully past the front doorstep of the Information Age, I look around with an expression rarely seen in hundreds of years. All those blank places on the maps have been filled in, Wikipedia has more entries than one could expect to browse through in a lifetime, and courtesy of Google and similar groups, I can plop myself down on any street in any city and have a look around. So why do I raise my head and sense Discovery in the air?
For all this supposed understanding, I just do not plain understand. We have an -ism or -ology for every imaginable person, place, thing, and idea. Billions of topic have been written on in triplicate. And what about all those wikipedia entries again? Well, for all that, why do so many things remain unexplained, so many corners of the world and the mind unexplored. Why does that online encyclopedia not have the mysticism and old book smell of a Library? Some things technology and modernity cannot address in its usual way. And that is where this site comes in.
Here at Realistpolitics, I write, muse, banter, and discourse about various issues in the world of interest. Politics, philosophy, current affairs, history, etc. A Humanities viewpoint for a century increasingly turning away from the Humanities. So dig in and read on for the eclectic 21st Century Philosopher's viewpoints. I can't provide that scent of old binding or a freshly discovered continent to explore. At least, I cannot give that in this world. The mind is our arena.
