COMMENT Posted on January 24, 2010
"Stupidity does not mean that a person has not understood something; rather it means that he behaves as if he did not understand anything. When a person moves headlong toward disaster in order to satisfy his prejudices, his errors, his defective and false reasoning -- this is inexcusable. It is far better to be deprived of intelligence than to make poor use of it. . . . Judging by our acts we become more stupid as we become less ignorant."
-- Charles Richet, L’homme stupide 1919 J.P.H.

Posted on August 25, 2009
After some delay this year, caused mainly by my taking advantage of a comparatively dry summer to catch up on all the outside work that had backed up through the ghastly wet winter, The Migration is finally finished and scheduled by Baen Books as a hardback release for next May. A generation ship departs from a curiously pluralistic post-calamity world to found a new, idealistic culture elsewhere, and a former traveling illusionist becomes the key player in finding a lost robot that has discovered religion. Further information here, including background and sample excerpts.
