You remember that I have a "home page" at The Well,
right?  Just in case the URL is not at your fingertips, here
it is:

https://people.well.com/user/edelsont/index.html

There've been some changes there.

There's a whole new Category, called "Philosophy".

And there's more!  Therein, you will find a file, in PDF
format, titled "Why Do Anything?".

And what's that about?  It's about a page long.

Oh, you meant "What is its subject matter?"  Well, see
now, its title is ambiguous.  If you read it quite literally,
you might expect the subject matter to be something like "What
counts as a good reason for doing anything?"  (Well, you might
expect that if you had a philosophy degree.)

Okay, so what's the other meaning for the title "Why Do
Anything?"  That would be something like
"Why do we do anything?"

But I'm not going to recap the whole content here; this is only
a teaser.  Its purpose is to motivate you to go read the PDF
file itself.  If you want to jump directly to it, here's a
link for that:
