Never took a Philosophy class and I curse myself.
Very cool stuff.
I have a few books by Bertrand Russell,
The History of Western Philosophy was one and it was very cumbersome
but very interesting. I was totally blown away that people were
thinking so deeply so far back. Huge misconception I had.
I was especially interested in the logic stuff. The civics
and way to govern stuff not as much. And then I read this
stuff about Kurt Goedel in a book called Pi in the Sky
and that just through me for a loop.
