...nothing to begin. Further, this information had to be passed on with no margin of error, as a single deviation between tests can render any and all data meaningless. In part through these laboratory experiences, I have learned that true understanding comes from the teaching of central concepts rather than brute-force memorization. In short, you don't learn THAT 62=3, you learn WHY 62=3, allowing you to find 82, 122, 93, and all the others (this...

I am a writer and freelance editor living and working in Portland, OR. I’ve spent the bulk of the last decade studying Philosophy, English, Cybertheory, and Professional Writing at Portland State University. I favor science-fiction (particularly military and cyberpunk) but generally enjoy any story that is interesting and well told. I also enjoy writing and editing for the screen– it is not the medium that intrigues me, but the content.
