Rambling Without a Destination

This is the first half of something I wrote for my part in a panel discussion at the national meeting of the Asian Studied Development Program, held in Boston last year.  I was supposed to talk about developing an Asian Philosophy class at JCCC, so I thought I’d also talk a bit about how I got into Chinese Philosophy in general.  I liked how it turned out, and since it’s not likely to end up any where else, I thought I’d put it here.
