It isn't really fair to call most of these "essays".. I don't really have the patience to write that much. So, in the below, Essays are things that are more than 500 words, grumps are between 100 and 500, and comments are less than 100. I'll mark documents with a number code that's approximately how many hundred-words are in them. If you disagree with any of the below, I'd be interested in hearing why, but only if your reasons are more interesting than "you are an evil person and/or a tool, your essays suck, you suck, and your spelling sucks." We'll pretty much put that down as a given, ok? So comment on my commentary can go to the address in the box below. Gratuitous insults can go to /devnul, unless they're REALLY clever.

Also, the letter-codes O, P, R, and S, stand for "Other, Politics, Religion(really more philosphy) and "Science", just in case the titles aren't enough of a clue.
