What is a Rudhro?

This is not a ‘blog’ but more a repository of source material– a SCRAPBOOK if you will–of the way I perceive my world, for my own future reference.  In conversations, debates, discussions and arguments, it’s at times frustrating to be unable to remember, cite, or prove . . an original reference, an historical issue or a point of fact.
Thus this ‘non-blog’.  

What is sourced here may, in and of itself, inspire debate, if not an educational interchange.  I hunger for knowledge and  relish intellectual stimulation.  Those who are familiar with my perspectives have referred to me as a philosopher–high praise, to be sure.  I am indeed far too lazy a lover of wisdom in actual fact to be worthy of such an epithet.

I am certainly a neurotic, with many thoughts and many opinions.  I always welcome input so feel free to comment if/where you see fit.  I do confirm/post opposing or differing comments/opinions be that they are articulate, sincere and meaningful. If you seek more of my own commentary, you can click to the RUDHROISMS page on the top right of the home page.
