Very few of the ideas I talk about here are my own. Sometimes they are verbatim ideas from others, more often they are a mashup, a synthesis of thoughts and ideas.

Because most of these ideas originate from others, I believe it correct and appropriate to give those others appropriate credit. In this category you will find mentions of people, books, papers or other bibliographic references, or mentions of people who have significantly effected my thinking. The idea is to give credit where credit is due.
