Wooooohooooo! (That's for you folks. You fellow bloggers amaze me everytime.)
So I'm being a little bit exuberant when I use the words "fan mail" to describe readers' emails, questions, and comments.
But just let me bask in the invented limelight for a few minutes. I've received an increasing amount of email in response to some of my posts.
I'll address a few recurring questions that appear in various forms here, and retain the anonymity of the curious:
1) "Love your blog. But I wanna hear more about what it's like to be a PHD student in psychology! .... "
Okay, I'm happy to oblige. See my re-branded web banner and profile description. Grad school is a magical place, and I feel I would be doing a disservice to the world if I didn't shine some insight on what goes on. Stay tuned for what that's like...
2) "Life optimization? C'mon, haven't philosophers been talking about that for 1000s of years?"
Probably. Yet, I'm more of a hands-on kinda guy. The only way I'm going to read any more philosophy is if Dr. Seuss returns from the dead to make his own series of translations in pictoral cartoony form. Would it be embarassing if I were to admit that most of my knowledge of philosophy (the stuff that is unrelated to my research) comes from wikipedia?
Yeah, this makes me love wikipedia.
