		<description><![CDATA[Back in August I became conscious of this fellow, Derek Sivers, who created CD Baby (later selling it for $22 million and giving the proceeds to a charitable trust for music education). If you poke around his blog, you&#8217;ll quickly find this post on saying &#8220;No.&#8221; Well, technically, it&#8217;s about simplifying your life by deciding [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We were talking about all the things that we&#8217;d missed out on and I realized that negativity is endless. There is no limit to what might have been. The negative knows no bounds. For every definite thing that is, there is an infinite number of things it is not. But the infinity of the negative is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An old friend accused me of &#8220;playing it safe&#8221; on my blog. Apparently, writing about death metal, however aesthetically outlandish the music or my love of it may be, is of little consequence, big picture-wise. Of course, I thought that my post on communism and change was kind of edgy—not to mention my frequent advocacy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Death Metal is genre music. Its defining characteristics are complex riffing (with a sometimes equally complex approach to meter), &#8220;blast beat&#8221; drumming, and vocal stylings that range from deep grunting to &#8220;cookie monster&#8221; growling to maniacal screaming. Naturally, the lyrical content of death metal centers around death —its many causes, violent and otherwise, as well [...]]]></description>

Said rankling arose from my even stronger belief that [...]]]></description>

When the universal stuff has achieved a uniform temperature, it will be completely and chaotically disordered. When the energy gradient has disappeared entirely, there will be no identifiable things.
