The Palimpsest of Sawbones Surio. Pessimism of the Intellect, Optimism of the Will. Guest Post: ERE-Lite or, How I can easily live on 5000 per annum — Part I.

I could try in the abstract, but it would be less convincing as it would tend to contradict many common worldviews, and encounter resistance ( Ed’s Note. Mr Crimson’s ol...
