Bear with me a while here

I'm trying to reformat this site to center on a wide browser window and it's not as easy as I might have thought. We're experiencing some inexperience difficulties.

[Update] Ok, I think I have it working - please let me know if you see anything weird happening here. Now I'm playing with a bit of a redesign, color changes mostly. I got a bit tired of the old look and thought I might spruce it up a bit. I'm also thinking about going to a single column layout to improve viewing and navigation on a small screen like my iPod Touch.

Shopping for sensation

The purest example of human shopping I know of can be seen by watching a child go through life touching absolutely everything. You’re watching that child shop for information, for understanding, for knowledge, for experience, for sensation. Especially for sensation, otherwise why would he have to touch or smell or taste or hear anything twice? Keep looking: Watch a dog. Watch a bird. Watch a bug. You might say the ant is searching for suitable food. I say he is shopping.
