The ideas of visionaries like Ram Dass and Alexander Shulgin
The Episcopal church
Returning to a more Jesus -based model of Christianity
The emerging New Christianity, whose four streams are emergent , missional , mosaic and neomonastic .
Web programming with PHP , MySQL , AJAX and AHAH

Library computing and the Library of Congress MARC database
Poetry

Imagining new ways to use the Internet that will take us to the next level and redefine what we have now.
