Dailies

The Noneuclidian Café opened up shop today.  James Swingle, the editor, writes: “I created Noneuclidean Cafe to be a place where we can test some premises, and where people and things that don't always get a chance to meet can come together:  Where personal growth and the arts can sit down together; where unconscious and conscious are given voice to express themselves; where all change modalities find a chair; where traditional wisdom and Western science have a place at the table; where personal and social change are invited; and where all lines, whether straight or not, have the right to get married if they want.”
