Not Just Higher Education
Gus Van Horn: A Circumscribed Debate discusses the lack of real diversity of opinion in colleges and universities-- supposedly the bastions of open discussion. Mrs. Fan attests to the same situation in the public grade schools as well. The situation surely deserves its own B. S. of the day Award. Consider it done. And don't miss his site and this post. No B.S. there.

Welcome
This blog is dedicated to the occcasional jotting down of my more extended essays. My profile will tell you that my areas of formal training are piano performance and philosophy. I have, therefore, the advantage of being an educated layman in economics history, painting, sales, business.
Here is the premise on which my blog is based: A is A. Many consider this an empty, meaningless statement because it is self-evident. But I regard it as powerful for that very reason. It is self-evident that a thing is what it is. In the context of this blog, another way to put it is this: wishing, praying, and government micro- and macro-managemennt will not make it other than it is.
Enjoy
