Ron, also known as, "SidewalkCynic," you're a dickhead. But we like dickheads here! Your previous introduction was shit. No two ways about it, it was shit. What you should have done is not entered my forum like you fucking own it. You don't, and that is very simple to understand. You should practice better etiquette, and a better attitude, when you enter an established community.

Found this about you online Why Do I Give Money To Funny Homeless People?

Now, I have a face and a bit of background - you are much more human and approachable. Now perhaps, others may, at least, consider your progressive/revolutionary ideas. But, your posts are very arrogant and uninviting, they are presumptuous, dictatorial, and in no way, invite interest.

So welcome aboard Richard.
Thank you, for that wonderful introduction. If ad hominem attacks are acceptable here - I'm going to be ecstatic. Please visit my online "I Love Me" picture album.

SidewalkCynic Album

I have been a hobo for the most part of the past 23 years, traveling around the eastern part of the United States. When I do stop and pay rent, I work as a commercial cook. I gathered short order cooking skills working in restaurants while going to art school after I discharged from the Navy in 1989 - I was ground crew for F-18's. Anyway, as a cook, I can pretty much go anywhere and find a job, and eat for free. I have had no desire to go into management, because it would require residency stability, and interviewing dopey cooks and dishwashers who are going to quit at a moments notice, like I do. There is a lot of turn-over in commercial kitchens, and I take advantage of it myself.

In the Spring of 1999 I realized I did not believe in the existence of a god. I never paid much attention to the moral standards - I did not care. I did not think it mattered, anyway. I became a bit more observant of my actions upon understanding that I was an atheist. For the most part, I stopped using theist vulgarities, because although, negative, it does serve to maintain reverence for the mythology.


In the Winter of 2000, I had a very stress free job working the night shift at the flop house that I was staying at. And it was then that I recognized that there was a major problem in society. I could not correctly describe it then, but now I describe it as the improper deliberation of reason; and I vowed to myself that I would figure it out. In the a Spring of 2002, I encountered an American Atheist magazine in a library - I had known of American Atheist, but for some reason it did not occur to me to research it on the Internet, which I was fairly versed with using to do somethings back then. Anyway, I attended the Atheists March on Washington, and I was disappointed, because it was not the enlightening experience that would help me understand the social problem that I was recognizing - the atheist attendees seemed to be just as disoriented as the greater population. I then attended an Atheist MeetUp, and again I was disappointed, because all they did was sit around and talk about how stupid and imposing the Christians were. Then I found the atheist forums, and noticed the faulty definition of religion. I could not describe the category error, back then that I have come to learn that it is.

I did not think the definition of religion was the problem with the world, and I continued my search. In 2004, I revisited a concept that I had considered in 1984. I recognized that there was a problem with the political representation, and in my 2004 revisiting of the concept I was able to construct a proportional representation scheme. I did not know that such schemes had already been defined and constructed, until I presented my scheme to a trusted politician who enlighten me, and explained that he was not inclined to overhaul the subsisting system.

In the Winter of 2006, I decided that I was going to start research on religion and politics, because nothing else seemed to be a starting point. As I began research, not only was I downloading the research I needed for the project, but I wanted to download other information that interested me; and that was when I realized that I needed a folder system to organize the information I was downloading. My first thought was there has to be a system devised already for computers, and then I realized that the library classification system is such a system, but it does not "work" very well for computers, otherwise it would be - it is not efficient, it is very cumbersome, clumsily structured. There are fifteen, or so, broad categories stuffed into the ten placements of the hierarchy. I recognized immediately that the lack of a reliable knowledge classification system was the root of the social problem that I was noticing. There was something in my primary education that I did not understand about how the social contract system works, but this revelation I was observing put the pieces of the puzzle together for me; and my duty is to put the pieces together for the betterment of mankind.

My laptop broke soon there after, and it was not until the following winter that I was able to begin deliberating the classification system. What I thought would only take a couple of weeks, turned into a couple of months, and then a few years. In 2012, I suspended concentrated efforts for deliberating the entire category and subcategories system; and commenced work on the derivative corporate chartering system.

The social contract theory is a legitimate theory that has not been updated very well. The words we use to communicate are a part of the greater social contract, and if the semantics is not agreed upon there is error, and deception deployed that we encounter, and we unwittingly dismiss the deceptions as the fault of the person exploiting the (innocent/honest) vocabulary of words, rather than recognizing that the system needs to be stabilized with a scientific methodology. Furthermore for humanists, the semantics form the doctrinaire of understanding reality. Our "scientific words" are stable, but other words tend to have this evolution that we accept, because of a dogma suggesting that there is no way to control it using scientific method.
If there were a god, then it would have revealed itself to me. There has never been anything more important in the history of Mankind than what I am delivering - scientific collation theory for the organization of technology.

What you should have done is not walked into our 'bar' like you fucking owned it. You don't. Simple.

Found this about you online Why Do I Give Money To Funny Homeless People?

You need better PR and a better attitude when you walk off the street into a 'bar'.

Now I have a face and a bit of background you are much more human and approachable. And then people may at least listen to your ideas.

Your posts are very arrogant and uninviting, they are presumptuous, dictatorial and in no way invite interest.

So welcome aboard Richard.

In the Navy, we called people, "Richard," because it is long/formal for, "Dick."

In 2006, I was pan handling in New York, and a couple of British girls were laughing and pointing at me a they entered a shop. When they came out they told me I was famous in England. They told me I was featured in the magazine, Heat. I found a copy in a New York news stand - I don't remember which month, but it was around January of 2006. So, if anyone has a collection, or access to a collection. . .

I was shore/ground based in Florida in a squadron that trained pilots and ground crew. I went on aircraft carriers a few times for no more than two weeks when the pilots were training to land on the carrier.
