nosology, apparently, has nothing to do with nostrils... but rather the classification of diseases. I'm reading about psychopathy, the last few days, and the fun part is that (if you believe in the concept of psychopathy, which is problematic) therapy doesn't make them better, it makes them worse, because they learn, as this article explains, how better to manipulate people. Tricks they hadn't known before...

p.s. -- anybody know what "nosology" means?

back to school. And I like my new courses, the reading load is a lot lighter, I can carry it all to work in my backpack without hurting my neck.

I've hired someone new to replace Alison on the weekend. She seemed quite happy when I informed her of this fact... The company M works for has until September 30th to make the government happy, or they're going to lock the doors. I don't know what will happen then.
