    HOLY COW THAT WEB DESIGN IS TERRIBLE. I can't even rate the information on the page because my eyes are still burning from looking at it for five seconds. From what I saw, it looked decent. But I don't know, since the layout is designed to burrow a hole through your eyes into the center of your skull.

    Before we go any further here, has it ever occurred to any of you that all this is simply one grand misunderstanding? Since you're not here to learn anything, but to be taught so you can pass these tests, knowledge has to be organized so it can be taught, and it has to be reduced to information so it can be organized do you follow that? In other words this leads you to assume that organization is an inherent property of the knowledge itself, and that disorder and chaos are simply irrelevant forces that threaten it from outside. In fact it's exactly the opposite. Order is simply a thin, perilous condition we try to impose on the basic reality of chaos... --William Gaddis, JR, p. 25

    I like the content here - and I've bookmarked to meander through it more carefully later. It must be said, however - the site design and readability SUCKS. Poor soul obviously doesn't have a friend to say, change the damn background/font.

    "...there is a perspective called the "sociological imagination" that can be used to "frame," or interpret, perceptions of social life. In part, this imagination features a healthy skepticism, assuming that social appearances often aren't what they seem. But even more, this perspective involves an awareness toward the linkages between history and biography, between social structure and consciousness, and between "knowledge" and its socio-cultural contexts. It is this one of this discipline's approaches to critical thinking."Some people actually don't like this stuff.(according to the reviews) I'm totally intrigued. It's a nice article, actually gets me interested, unlike half the stuff I've been looking at lately. There's also links within the text that I like checking out, sometimes you can find some new, cool things you were unaware of before.

    Should be a "must read" for all those Wikipedians (the Germans are especially infamous, though it does not matter much, them still thinking that Wikipedia is a project to build an encyclopedia)) who emphasize like, quote (as of now (objectivve reality changes from time to time, even there)):"Science, in the broadest sense, refers to any system of objective knowledge. In a more restricted sense, science refers to a system of acquiring knowledge based on the scientific method , as well as to the organized body of knowledge gained through such research." Vented - I should relax instead :)
