That's great to hear, Mr.NW. We're sure hoping that the site stays around for a good long time.

What was your specialty, Meredith? American? European?

Masters degree in philosophy; Bachelor's was mathematics. I work in scholarly publishing. And by the way, TND, I've read the Critique of Pure Reason three times and the Critique of Practical Reason at least twice, but the Critique of Judgment only once.
