My brother Dan is one of the leading experts on Hume and presented recently
at the Hume conference in Edinborough.

His focus is perceptual relationism, whatever the hell that it. I think Dan
may have coined that term, although I could be mistaken.

I LOOOOOOVE Hume. I can't emphasize enough how well reasoned and
fully encompassing his philosophy is.

Or perhaps this:
Three Minute Philosophyhttp://www.youtube.com/user/CollegeBinary
Or maybe just him:
Philosophy: Everything you need, in 5
minuteshttp://www.scottberkun.com/blog/2010/philosophy-in-5-minutes/
Of course, I can't forget to mention my frenemies over at the Partially
Examined Life:

That said, long-time readers will know that I've given up on philosophy
and moved on to zoasophy. :-)

In all seriousness, I do agree what we are doing is intended to be
real-world philosophy, but it is interesting to see how other people
approach a similar task
Cheers. :-)
