    If you want to contact me about making this site better, please feel free. If you are a student and want help, I'll do my best. If you want to debate my positivist pedagogy or explain why argumentation and proof are illusions of the hegemony, please just don't. I will keep up as best as I can, but this is a volunteer project!
