I would love to see a post about the rationalist lessons of Buddhism or Taoism. I actually recently ordered copies of the Tao Te Ching and Zhuangzhi, maybe I will write something about them when they get here!

Of course the last time I said that about something I ended up never going through with it so we'll see how this time fares >.>

edit: perhaps this is a start.

Yup, Luke's awesome. He has a blog too, if you want a LW rationalist's intro to meditative Buddhism. http://universalprocess.wordpress.com/

Not sure how active my blog will be in the future. I'd rather write here instead. :-)

Do itttttttt. By the way, how does one travel between Davis and Santa Clara? I'd like to meet up and discuss things or learn to rock climb or whatever if you're free much. If you don't have a car it'd probably be easier for me to drive to Davis.

It's 2 hours by car but I have no car. Public transportation seems hellish. So you could either come to Davis or we could intersect halfway in Berkeley.

Heck yes! First we'll solve the cosmological measure problem, then celebrate by climbing in the lushness of Kalymnos.
