My Own Little World ...

No, this isn't me :-) But it is one of my favorite online pictures, so I use it as a pleasant way of greeting you .

My World Wide Web Pages are black to protest the unconstitutional so-called Communications Decency Act, which I find highly indecent. Read about it at this WWW page. If you would like to become a plantiff in the class action suit against the government, please Add your name to the CIEC list of Plaintiffs. For a list of alternatives to government censorship of the Internet, please visit the Families Against Internet Censorship home page.

Countdown to Supreme Court Please join the Blue Ribbon Anti-Censorship Campaign, and put a blue ribbon on your home page!

Disclaimer: I offer these web pages not as a UCSD employee, but as a private individual availing himself of the university's "personal use" policy. The views expressed here have no necessary connection with those of the university, its faculty, staff, students, alumni, etc.

Here's a short version of my autobiography, which I've written from the perspective of my more recent interests in life (general semantics, libertarian thinking, the further reaches of the mind, etc.). I plan to eventually html-ize it.

I also have a series of photos I got scanned in so you can see what I've looked like in the past. (To show what I look like "now", I'd have to have a digital electronic camera continually take pictures of me and update the web page as it goes ... but I don't have such a nice setup. ;-)

Articles, essays and speeches I've written:

I host these mailing lists / web pages:
