Going back to the first post, I'd heartily echo its intent which was to recommend reading the BOT, for anyone who hasn't. Periodically recommending the books (and periodicals!) that function as definitive sourcebooks for the focus of TC serves a good purpose for newcomers who might not be aware of some of the things that have become common knowledge here. I think some great philosopher said, "Ignorance is bliss, but knowledge is a lot of work." Maybe so, but if it's knowledge of something that interests you, then at least you have a tailwind. And fear not free thinkers! You will still be able to think freely after reading it (with only rare exceptions). -Randy
