Tietoja minustaI am an editor by profession, which makes me a reader and writer by definition. In addition, I enjoy composing music, in styles reminiscent of Hindemith, Milhaud, Stravinsky, Hovhaness, Satie, and Tcherepnin . . . and, yes, Scott Joplin.
Tietoja kirjastostaniFor years I treated used book stores as a kind of lending library: buy a book, read it, trade the book back for "store credit" (anoher book or books). This has left me a private library of many books I have yet to read. More recently, I have found myself buying editions of books a second or third time, to read over. Hardly the most economical method of acquiring reading matter. At present I have lots of space at low cost, so accumulating books doesn't present quite the disutility it might be for others. Three thousand books? No problem. I could house ten thousand, if I could get rid of my hoard of old Macintosh computers.

Volney was the most famous of the Ideologues although it was Tracy who invented the word. Volney "discovered" a young and then unknown Napopleon Bonaparte during a 1793 trip through Corsica. They remained friends throughout the revolutionary period, with Bonaparte often asking Volney for advice regarding his career. Volney later convinced the other Ideologues to support Bonaparte's coup. As a reward the Premier Consul offered Volney the Third Consulship as well as the Interior Ministry. Volney declined both posts but accepted the offer to become a Senator. Bonaparte and the Ideologues subsequently disagreed over the Concordat with the Pope which effectively ended the separation of church and state established by the 1791 constitution. But their real split came with the proclamation of the Empire; in the event, Volney was one of only three Senators to vote against it--and it was their opposition to his budding tyranny that caused Bonaparte to use the word "Ideologue" as a pejorative...
