Thanks, John!

My dearly beloved student, John Brunner, Jr., recently challenged folks to join him in some ongoing, interactive, online publication via Blogspot.  Being a huge fan of participation in the construction of text in order to create and exchange meaning of all sorts, I jumped at the chance... metaphorically.  

What a cool opportunity to take on something I already love and to lift it to a new level (yeah, I recognize the potential for communication to move the other direction, but hope springs eternal for some!)

Being a huge fan of John as a thinker, writer, and student, I can hardly wait to see where this experiment will lead and what it will produce.  As for now, throwing caution to the wind and embracing the productive potential of writing as one of the best possible learning tools known to mankind, let the adventure begin!
