Om meg Intensely liberal, I champion the underdog, the despised victims of the greater society: all those who face discrimination ... racial "minorities", gay people, immigrants, the poor, infants subjected to genital mutilation (whether male or female), people who dissent, slaves (more today than ever in history). A vegetarian, I feel deeply for the suffering of the millions of animals, butchered for the delectation of the uncouth who demonstrate no sympathy for the suffering of other living beings.

Om biblioteket mitt Somewhat eclectic, but heavily weighted toward architecture and the arts, photography included. Frank Lloyd Wright's work and philosophy bowled me over, beginning at age 12-13, and I'm honoured to have books autographed by Wright and by Mrs. Wright, too. However, my collection is reflective of my intense interest in and thirst for the whole of life: from politics to glacial geology, geography, and history, to the Fine Arts, particularly Architecture, as reflected in the relationship between man and his earth. The work of artists, architects, writers, musicians and composers thrills me to the core of my being. I value the books, prints, photographs, and those few paintings in my library over almost anything else in my life.

Religion is such a personal thing, that it puzzles me to find people attempting to fit their life and the life of others into books that are thousands of year's old, books which have been constantly amended by individuals with a particular agenda, and then translated and retranslated until no one knows for certain what the original said, or what the authors really meant. And yet I find it intensely interesting to research the subject, as an aid in discovering clues which might shed light on subsequent events.
