The Logics Information Page

About the Website:

The Logics is a hobby-creation by Larry Neal Gowdy. The website is not directly affiliated with nor does it support any ideology or social organization. New pages and updates will be frequent.

About the Website Design:

The Logics website design is an experiment to toy with and to observe the effects of combining the influences of quality classical music with quality art within an atmosphere of classical western philosophy. While creating the site's pages, the predominate background music being listened to is from Alessio Benvenuti's excellent violin and piano at ClassicCat.net, various Bach and Beethoven podcasts from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and a mixture of Andrea Bocelli's Aria, Claudio Arrau's Chopin, Hilary Hahn's Bach Concertos, and Natalie Dessay's Italian Opera Arias. Music creates emotions, emotions color thoughts, mental patterns blend with the rhythms of emotions and music, sentence structures are written within the patterning and rhythms, and it is best for the reader to use similar background music as what accompanied the creation of each web page. It is the author's opinion that the website is well viewed while listening to Bach by Benvenuti.

The website structure was designed to self-adjust to 800x600 and higher screen resolutions. No java, no java script, no CSS (ok, so maybe a little CSS), no PHP, no Flash, no music, no video, no banners, no pop-ups, nothing but nice clean HTML for reliability, security, and fast loading for all known browsers. It is the creator's opinion that the site looks best on 1440x900 and with an Internet Explorer®, FireFox® v3, or Opera® browser maximized for full screen and without the status bar (press the F11 key to observe the effect). Netscape® and older Firefox users can temporarily remove the status and tool bars through the 'View' menu and then press F11 to get a similar effect. Internet Explorer appears to give the best quality experience of all browsers. An earnest attempt has been applied to create a website that is compatible with the greatest number of visitors' screen sizes and browsers, while the website simultaneously attempts to maintain the best balance of graphic sizes for the higher resolution monitors.

As of June 11, 2008, thelogics.org changed to a new hosting service. Speed and reliability are dramatically improved.

About the Website Topics:

The information presented in The Logics website is drawn from the author's personal knowledge-base. The topics span a small portion of what the author feels is useful information. The Dialogues of Nodin and William are a means of expressing a concept within a fictitious story-line that includes sequencings of Nature-based logic. The non-fiction articles reflect how some of the concepts within the Dialogues of Nodin and William apply to real-world life.

September 12, 2009: Relatively minor changes have been in progress for the past several weeks. Due to numerous reasons, some of the topics will be given a different approach.

March 05, 2010: After almost three years of The Logics being online, the website has achieved all of the purposes it was designed to do, and it is now time to progress back to what the author feels are the more useful of topics. The website's layout will become more condensed, while some of the current pages may be deleted due to their no longer serving a useful purpose.

About the Graphics:

Special thanks are given for the several graphics that are courtesy of the WebMuseum, Paris and are being used under the WebMuseum License Agreement. Some of the graphics have been resized to fit smaller screen resolutions. As time permits, the WebMuseum's graphics may be replaced by the author's own. March 6, 2010: Additional graphics may be used from the excellent website Museum Syndicate.

How to Contact:

The author can be contacted at spamvictim@thelogics.org. Due to expected junk/hate mail, the email address may change frequently. Fortunately the quantity of junk/hate mail has thus far been very little.

About Copyrights:

All photographs, graphics, and text used throughout this website are original copyrighted creations of the author except for the WebMuseum graphics (as noted at the bottom of each page) and various public domain photographs. The author retains all legal rights to all personally created content and use. Permission is given to copy/quote portions of The Logics web pages for non-profit use (i.e. in a blog, forum, or school use, but never for commercial or financial gain) if the quote is accompanied with the author's name and the URL address that the quote was taken from. Use Intelligently - Don't Abuse Ignorantly. 07-17-2009: If you want to use a public domain photograph (those marked (PD)) on your website, then simply right click on the photograph, save it to your hard drive, and then upload the photograph to your website's server. Linking the photograph from thelogics.org consumes the author's bandwidth, and it is considered as theft to rob the author of his paid bandwidth. Some of the public domain photographs on thelogics.org now have the website name on the photographs themselves so that visitors to the thieves' websites will know where the photographs were stolen.
