The goal of an Encyclopedia is to assemble all the knowledge scattered across the surface of the earth, to demonstrate the known ways of things to those who share our times, & to transmit it to the people who will come after us, so that the work of centuries past is not useless to the centuries which follow, that our descendants, by becoming more learned, may become more virtuous & happier, & that we do not die without having merited being part of the human race.
Hi! Please feel free to leave a message on my talk page. I have one alternate account, Ganesha811-Alt, which was created to test certain user settings. I have occasionally written for The Signpost—my most significant contribution was my first, "A Little Fun Goes A Long Way".
