Heads up gortbusters with attitude.  If any of you choose to swallow the purple pill and resist the Rent Trap, you may want to daydream about living in a VW Vanagon with solar panel.  It might even be possiblle to dwell in as-is when it fails to be high-way ready.   ;)

Things They Will Never Tell YouArthur Schopenhauer has been the most radical and defiant of all troublemakers.

As you know in a typical University philosophy syllabus they almost always skip Schopenhauer and jump right over to Nietzsche which is a crying shame.
You once told me that at Rutgers you wrote an essay on Schopenhauer and it was appreciated by the professor.
The man in the street knows nothing about all this. He is only interested in the next promotion, the next care.

Kafka, if he were where I am, would have found the social system a thousand times more labyrinthine.Its an absolute night mare.The thought police is after everyone here.

Kafka would have a field day if he were here..or he will feel extremely dizzy and then lose his consciousness.
I hide in my room like a rat.I go out to get my bag of flour and that is pretty much it. I dont speak to anyone-I have nothing to say to them,nothing that would make sense to them. I have just begun to tinker with Python a little bit, and to my surprise its might not be something that would prove to be beyond my comprehension.
 
PS:Do you by any chance still have a copy of the essay.

I intend to dwell in "the border country between philosophy and mathematics*".
