notes on my 'self' article

I realize that for a blog post my article on the self in cognitive science is a bit long and dense; if you are a new reader please start with something shorter, perhaps my review of cannibal holocaust or the 'have some shame' post. I stand by this monstrous post because it is a serious subject that is about you, about all of us, and I have tried to be as absolutely thorough and genuine in my treatment of the subject. I hope some people try it on for size, even if it's a bit dense and particularly difficult to absorb in this format. I will try to make future posts of this nature more concise.
