Welcome -- Unless You're From New Jersey.

I hope to use this space for additional essays in the coming year. I will be writing about books, films, politics, science and philosophical ideas "in fierce rebellion" -- like Milton's "Lucifer."

Oh, freedom! If to me belong
Nor mighty Milton's gift divine
Nor Marvell's wit and graceful song,
Still with a love as deep and strong
As theirs, I lay, like them, my best gifts on thy shrine!

-- WHITTIER, Poem.
