Essays, like children, are never fully raised, but at some
point they must be let go to engage the world on their own. And, like children, essays are
never perfect, never-the-less the parent is proud. Thus, please feel
free to email me (
) if you would like to make suggestions or
discuss any of my essays. I am especially interested in input
from domain experts who can offer a critical analysis of my work and
from those who disagree with me and can clearly articulate a challenge
to my positions.
