This is a labor of love, I write because I like to write. My political philosophy is conservative. I am a social scientist with a strong systems engineering background and have difficult time with sticky gray issues mired in feel good rhetoric.
I hope that readers who come here can take away some knowledge, idea, or thought they can use. I encourage comments that contribute to the discussion. While I prefer those who comment to use their real name in a post, I will accept a pen name if your real name is know to me. However, your comments carry more weight when signed. All those who comment must provide a real e-mail address. If you use a fake e-mail your post will be sniped. Please do not engage in personal attacks. You can challenge ideas without attacking the person.
To reduce the comment chatter, I will be removing comments that are not relevant to the subject of the post.
If your would like to discuss this policy, or want to comment with out attribution just e-mail me at rwsteele(at)gmail.com
