I know I should put a disclaimer here, because some of the views that I will inevitably express in this blog will not be those of the people around me. I also know that I should write it, but it just so happens that I found a blog with a rather good one. So with thanks to Alex Barnet (and Preoccupations):

This is a personal weblog. The opinions expressed here represent my own and not those of my employer, parents or educational institution (school). In addition, my thoughts and opinions change from time to time…I consider this a necessary consequence of having an open mind. This weblog is intended to provide a semi-permanent point in time snapshot and manifestation of the various memes running around my brain, and as such any thoughts and opinions expressed within out-of-date posts may not the same, nor even similar, to those I may hold today.
