==About this Website==
+
This website is a work in progress, and is in fact just getting started. Words that appear as [[Red Links]] indicate a page that is referred to but has yet to be created.
This site is a variation on a project I've been thinking about for years, which I refer to as the [[mental toolkit]]. The mental toolkit is a collection of [[conceptual scheme]]s which, by reflecting how the world works, help the person untake individual and collective projects. If the person's mental schemes accurately reflect how the world in fact works, their projects are more likely to succeed.

As soon as we start investigating any particular [[conceptual scheme]], we come across a vast sea of existing specialized knowledge.

==About this Website==
 +
This site is an experiment in elaborating a [[mental toolkit]]. A mental toolkit is a collection of [[conceptual scheme]]s which, by reflecting how the world works, help the person carry out individual and collective projects. If the person's mental schemes accurately reflect how the world in fact works, their projects are more likely to succeed. This experiment is rooted in a political outlook: that of trying to distribute power more equally to all members of society. See [[Danton's politics]].
  
Just as I started making [http://sluserguide.com Danton's Second Life User Guide] in order to increase my own knowledge of [[Second Life]], one basic reason for making this present site is to increase my own knowledge of [[Real Life]].

[[:Category:Life]] is the principle content category. It contains the following main sub-categories:
This website is a work in progress. For the moment there is only one Category, containing only one Page [[Real Life]], which contains only one section: "External Links".

You may discover pages on this website left over from when it was used for other things. In fact, I've used this [[MediaWiki]] site for a series of different projects, each of which replaced that preceding. One day I will try to delete the obsolete pages, but that is rather complicated task under MediaWiki.
