This Blog Has No Description

Apparently, we have to say something about what we do from time to time. Over the years, I have taught many different courses at the George Washington University on many different subjects that have shared a common methodology, a common set of ideas, a common approach to the world. This is a blog for students and former students of those common ideas to keep in touch with me, to share their thoughts, to contribute their thoughts. I will update it weekly or as events demand.

The Ceremonies of Email

I spent much of the weekend sitting in ceremonies and emailing. That seems to be the tradition of modern ceremonies. We go to the events to experience them with our friends, even if we are located in different parts of the venue. I published an essay about this phenomena two years ago. I suppose that the only change has been an increased demand on bandwidth. I noticed that on the big Sunday ceremony, emails sometimes required 20 minutes to leave the outbox.
