I don't remember if I posted this -- but we've finally got the Fordham Philosophical Society website mostly working, with my name on it (about a month or so ago) as President & no longer Secretary. Soon I'll be replaced, but the Google cache will be forever.

Also, Dr. Baur sent me a list of books I could review for the Owl of Minerva (the journal of the Hegel Society of America). What looks good? (I think I'm going to go for Hegel's Philosophy of Reality, Freedom, and God, just 'cause (a) it's interesting (b) it's quite recent and (c) it would be the most expensive if I bought it on my own, instead of getting to keep my review copy. Yes, I'm that shallow).

What do you think? (this is probably mostly directed at Paul Kendal, though Doug, if you're reading, your advice also entirely welcome... non-philosophically-minded friends, bear with me, or go back to celebrities without makeup).
