Moral-Flexibility.Net

I am not, despite my best efforts, a writer. I mangle the english language with almost complete abandon, and my use of punctuation is questionable at best (I have always used more commas than absolutely required). Despite this I’ve been fortunate in that some people have taken an interest in the things I have written, and have actually sought permission to use them (some have just used them without permission as well, although I’ve yet to find an uncredited example) from time to time.

Undoubtedly there are some here that remember my early efforts with CSIO.Net as an outlet for my frustration with the private security industry. Much to my suprise the articles were well received, and were reprinted in a few trade papers and even a school textbook (last I heard Mohawk College had used one in their law and security textbook, I never did get my copy however…hmmmm). The articles on security were shortlived, as there are only so many ways to say “minimum wage monkeys cannot protect you” in a polite way, and I got tired of restating the obvious.

As flattered as I was to have one of my articles used in a school textbook (even if that textbook is now being used by a college graduate to prop up his dining room table) I’m afraid this was eclipsed by a recent request to use some of my zombie survival material over at the Zombiehunters.org knowledge base.

I have to admit that I spend more time than is good for me, and less time than I want lurking, and occasionally posting over at the Zombie Squad Survival Forums. While I was initially interested in the forums because of the zombie content, the survival (yes I know thats a dirty word, perhaps “disaster readiness” is a better phrase?) aspect makes for fascinating reading, and it pleases me to no end to have contributed even slightly to that community.
