| Introduction | As thinking beings, I believe we should do so. Plato's "Republic" was originally published around 380 BC. It is still vital and relevant today. His "Allegory of The Cave" is especially fascinating as it illustrates a point about reality. Metaphorically, we are the prisoners in the cave trying to view reality via the shadows on the wall. This has been scientifically proven. Consequently, it is important to get many different views as possible before making a decision of great significance. Facts are subject to change. Remember, at one time the world was flat. Opinions are never wrong due to what they are. So here we go. |
| Interests | In no specific order: investing, education, philanthropy, art, music, politics, foreign policy, literature, poetry, science, medicine, health care, technology, robotics, physics, entrepreneurship, history, cultural anthropology... the list is long. |
| Favorite movies | Comedy |
| Favorite music | All kinds, made with effort, by talented artists. |
| Favorite books | I love books! Fiction and non-fiction, biography, science, philosophy... you name it. I used to spend whole days in book stores and libraries. If not for the fact that they don't allow food or drink, I may have lived in one or two. |
Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?
It is the sole discretion the artist to decide this. Being a statue makes it art. That is like asking Andy Warhol's can of soup the same question. Given that people want to commission a piece, they should be consulted. But the artist has the final say.
