What we have here is success, to communicate. Dave and I want to map out the site, and use a map to do it, and so a map it is. It's not just a metaphor, people. It's also an image. It's not just an image, it's also a guide. We're trying to get our stuff together, so this will help us wend our way through the place.
The proposed architecture for the place will go basically in this manner:
- NatureLand: What They Used to Call the Environment
- The Art/Science (Non?)Divide Building: Our Residents Discuss the Matter
- The Book Building
- The Film Building
- The Website Building
- Ethics Palace: Where ethical questions go to live or die
- Knoxville '82: Where Miscellany Thrive
- a. Industrial Agriculture
b. Nuclear Energy
c. Mountaintop Coal Removal
d. Nature on the Web, How Bizarre
e. Nature as in Earth, as in Global, as in Global Issues Generally
f. Nature, as in Parts, Bits, of Molecular Nature
- a. Books by great Science writers - like McPhee, Quammen, those types
b. Books that are just good - literature in general
c. Humor stuff, and in the best of worlds, science humor stuff
d. About Writing Generally
- a. Video links (archive.org samples, for example; Youtube.com; others...)
b. Movie discussion
i. Contemporary
ii. Futuristic filmography
iii. Science in Film in General
- a. Links to interesting sites and discussion of them
b. Links to Other Conversations and Articles
Of course, it's all subject to revision and updating, but you knew that, it's a blog (June 12,2006).

Of course, we'll need to let folks know where the bathroom is... I'm sure that's a category where a lot of our stuff should probably go in the end.
