Perhaps you’ve already noticed the new category to the right: Noteworthy Nodes. I’d been thinking of ways to feature some of the better content in this rambling warren, but leave it to Australian pro-freedom writer Shaun Saunders to serve up a reason for making it happen pronto.

Inspired by Cat Farmer’s recent essay The 7 C’s: An Ideological or Social Spectrum, he wrote a story based on her idea. Shaun dedicated it to all of us here, but I daresay the other conspirators will agree that Cat deserves all the credit. It’s too good not to feature prominently and permanently here, and Shaun graciously gave me permission to do so. We both hope you enjoy The Seven C’s!
