Iraq Confederation
Additional Information
"One of the most important ethical problems currently facing Americans is what to do about the Iraq war. You can do something right now to bring peace. Read my proposal at http://www.IraqConfederation.org and forward the first question to our leaders."
Title
Socratic Problem Solver
Introduction
This group helps me to refine what I call The Socratic Problem Solving Method. Right now, that method is basically three questions: What is? (Definitions and Assumptions) What matters? (Objectives and Ethics) What's best? (Options and Cost Benefit)

  •  Muchacho, I just read an old shout I wrote to you. OMG, that was after our James Frye discussion at Sneakers! I noticed that James Frye has a new book out that has recieved some bombdiggity reviews. Can't wait to read it! What does that say about my to obsequious loyalty to unprincipled men? :)

  •  David...the hilarity of shouting me when you're a fundamental shout-doubter. I am taking a serious look at my submissive role in relation to men since you opened my eyes to James Frye's abuse toward me. I wonder how I could have allowed myself to be such a doormat? And to think I unblinkingly excused all of those lies!!!
