It might take me a bit to find it. I'm just sorting through a huge move. Yesterday, I literally unloaded 90,000lbs with the help of our very own 12344Mag. I did, just recently, run into my research materials and notes, but I'm not sure which pallet they ended up in.

Wife and I, we're both biological types, had a Zoology professor. Best teacher I ever had at any level of school. He and his brother wrote a very well respected textbook on invertebrate zoology.

She told me one day in class, during a lecture on some critter's internal workings or such, a student asked him "Why does it work like this? " or something similar.

His answer was "Why is a philosophy question. That department is located on the other side of the campus"

That about sums up my philosophy experience.

I can count Castaneda and Don Juan as philosophy though I guess. There is a separate reality.

My perspective on ethics, morality, and judgment in general is strongly influenced by Pyrrho.

On first glance of things that came up on search of his name, I may be interested in checking out his path.

Can you recommend any particular parts of his writings or scholarly discussions of such?

Suspension of judgment whenever not practically possible.

Thumbs up to that.

Sometimes things just "Are".

Not good, not bad, they just "Are"

For a quick overview (remember Cliff's Notes?) I have an older textbook Greek Philosophy: Thales to Aristotle that boils down the pre-Socratic biggies. Thales was especially geared toward math and modern STEM programs owe him a tip of the sombrero. Aristotle, a student of Plato, is a classic whose works are routinely easy to find if you are so inclined.

For blasphemous humor, besides Monty Python, try the Flying Spaghetti Monster website.

I've tried to merge Seneca's outlook on life with Aleister Crowley's views on women as my roadmap.
