People are always quick to point out that we are doomed to repeat history if we forget it. I beg to differ. In my somewhat cynical moments, I always believe that the natural greed of humans will lead to moments in history that repeat themselves - simply remembering is not enough.

Each person, each generation thinks it is wiser and smarter than previous generations. We can learn all we want about books, but that still doesn't free us from the past. The superman mentality, as well as the fact that reading something in a book doesn't mean we know it, leads to situations.

In any case, I've settled down somewhat from my desperate whiny post last night. I went to school today, did a little work, did some studying, hung out with some friends (who all seemed just as blah as me today) ... I came back and I've been relatively productive working on Tabulas (which makes me happy).

I guess standing back, Tabulas is a nice achievement right now. There are a few huge bugs to work out (e.g. the whole styling system), but once that's done, I think it will be at a point where I can stand back, take a few weeks off, and nothing horrid would happen. It just took me a little bit to realize how nice Tabulas really is; reading other peoples' Tabulas really encouraged me.

So to everyone who has used Tabulas ... thank you. I have most likely read your Tabulas, even if you don't know me (as long as you're linked from the main page). Seeing those first "hey this is my first post ... trying out Tabulas" is a huge encouragement. Thank you.

I'd really like to get to work on AudioMatch one of these days. Not to mention my new project which is incredibly exciting ... I told Yushien about it and he started getting excited about it too. It's something new that really hasn't been done ... and the level of realism ... it's going to be a lot of fun.
