, by Kate Feld, A'95. For me, it's always been easier to focus on the positive side of Vermont's liberal bias — the wonderful sense of community, two Independents in Congress, many good health food stores, and socially-responsible businesses. But it's dark side is pretty ugly: a whole population that's smug, self-congratulatory, and elitist.

by Dean Hannotte, A'68. I was shocked in college to hear an iconoclastic professor tell a student, "Oh it's perfectly possible that we may know more about you than you do yourself."

I've wondered what it would be like to be a subterranean explorer in a post-apocyliptic New York searching through those hollow tunnels, down those meandering, forking tracks, lost to the daylight for days while you move down lines haunted by the squeaking and clattering of long demolished or decommissioned trains.

And then there's . According to Odious, I'm afraid I try to remain pseudonymous (an increasingly futile and symbolic task) online. If it helps, Peculiar and I both matriculated in 97', he graduated in '01, and I got kicked out in 00', 01', and 02'. We spent all our time in Santa Fe.

Tony is a clinical psychologist practicing in New York State. He has been particularly interested in Ernst Cassirer's "critical" philosophy and has explored the implications of this approach for psychology.

, by Dean Hannotte, A'68. When I was thirteen I was beginning to get a very strong suspicion that I was VERY unlike other thirteen-year-olds. I seemed unable to learn the rules of social engagement. I didn't know how to be cruel to animals, I didn't know how to whistle at girls, I didn't know how to care who won the world series. Then I read Odd John by Olaf Stapledon, and a whole new theory suggested itself. Dean also runs the .
