We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Be careful what you say Yesterday I visited Warwick (both the castle and the town) – it was an interesting trip, but an odd thing happened that may amuse some people.
I was in the crypt of St Mary’s Church Warwick and (observing my condition and the condition of the two friends who were with me) I said:
“Three bald men, gone red in the sun”
There was an odd silence from my two friends, and turning round I saw three, rather sun burnt, bald men – three thick set men, with tattoos.
I looked at them and they looked back. They smiled and I smiled and no fight resulted.
I wonder what the odds of this event were. The crypt was a small place and no other people were there.

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

A couple of points …
1) What were you smoking?
2) So your knee jerk profiling was wrong.
3) You can’t count.
4) Just what has this to do with the price of butter?
It means it was a hot day… I almost went to Warwick castle on Sunday, but ended up at Broadway Tower.
I see, the usual academic way of using 150 words when 7 would do……:-)
