run amok, it is difficult for a common-sense, rational person who respects truth, authority, and the law to stand aside and say nothing. Having taught about good vs. evil for 30 years in high school English (Macbeth, King Lear, Othello, Hamlet, Lord of the Flies, Great Expectations, et al), I pretty much know corruption and evil when I see it in public.
Hence, many of my blog entries from the past 6 years. One has consciousness and a brain, but one has to speak out for truth when it is under fire. People need to be called out from time to time for stupidity, evil, and corruption. Crap-detecting we used to call it in university.
I declared myself long ago (c.f . below) and have many positive preferences for blog topics, truth be known. And, as much as possible these daze, I still try to write about those many positive things as I experience them in the course of a day.
