Insisting on any one topic would be the intent of a reductionist. Now back to philosophy!

But, I would very much appreciate some guidelines on what was [in]appropriate content for the mailing list. It's probably obvious that I have no social skills and, hence, no ability to infer what's [in]appropriate. Being relatively free with the thread collapse and delete buttons, I can end up pretty biased toward the things that interest me, which runs the risk of crossing the [in]appropriateness boundary. -- ⇔ glen ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com
