A word of explanation

bktheirregularDon't know if anyone noticed that I changed the name of my journal. It's subtle, I grant you, but still.
Maybe "agnostic" isn't the right word for what I am, but it comes closest. Like the subtitle says, it's derived from a Greek word, γνωση, literally "knowledge". The α prefix in Greek is a negative, so: one who does not know.
And the title of my friends' page comes from The Vor Game, in recognition that anyone who turns up there (and most likely, anyone reading this yammering) is following their own path to that uncertain future. I've got a friends-list count of fifty-six; I doubt that the number of paths being followed by the people on the list is less than half of that.
Reading over that, I'm not sure how it comes out...
