Any queries about the reviews on this site, especially those of Auckland, please email me at mungo1@xtra.co.nz .

My insistence on proper names is to minimize personal abuse, waffle and shameless self-promotion. I ask contributors also to avoid offensive language and gratuitous sexual terms, not for any reasons of moral high ground, but simply because of pragmatics. I want the site to be welcoming as an educational resource so it can increase its audience.

eyeCONTACT is about you looking at this screen and art that is usually visual. It is also about direct talk, perhaps two people speaking face to face, one of them asserting an unpopular position and staring down the opposition.

Although it talks of commitment and being serious, the site is not actually about being right or wrong. Rather this forum is about the pleasures of debate and participating in dialogue. It is about the joy of articulating thought and responding to stimulating company.
