Alas, I spoke too soon. Came back from Lyrik to
check out Time Capsule [0] and noticed that
picture must have been from a different cover.

This was a recently inherited collection, donated
by Alex Aris who is simplifying his life, and turning
to Nietzsche more. Has math book collection,
lots of Springer-Verlag, went to another worthy
recipient.

Just now, I'm fixin' to head over to Quakers, the
Mulnomah Friends facility (not called a "church"),
where I'll do food prep with Food Not Bombs
(FNB).[1]

I'm doing a lot of this "showing by doing" in my
chronofile, making a record, in part to encourage
by example.

I learned from Walter Kaufmann, that if you're a
philosopher, we get to audit how you spend your
time to some extent, as if this were some TV
series or syndicated serial (comic book).

I don't know many if any practicing philosophers
without some kind of chronofile going, if only a
FB profile.

Quakers called them journals before the emergence
of the blogosphere in the noosphere, and some
still do, quaint and peculiar people that we be.

You'll see my FNB API is an interface to a flavor
of cosmopolitan Buddhism associated with the
Pacific Realm circa now (check your records).
Portland was like Little Lhasa back then.

Not expecting this to post, don't worry. Yes, I have it. I believe I have an ebook, in fact. Daniele Moyale-Sharrock is one of my favorite recent expositors...
