I'm sure it comes as no surprise to any of you that I know nothing about
agnotology. And I suppose that must make me somewhat of an expert.
Just how some that what is, I don't know, knowing as I do, nothing about the
subject. Alwaystheless, I have nothing to say about nothing. Unlike
Heidegger who felt most at home in the Nothingnest, I feel most comfortable
when I'm winging it. Is nothing nothing more than no thing? Is there such
a case of the world as no thing? Is to speak of no thing a
radical contradiction of reason and a betrayal of the essense of language?
I don't know. I just don't know. And I don't care that I don't know. I
don't know why I don't care. I just don't.
