Introduction

My name is David Tynan, I'm a transfer student starting my junior year at MCLA. Before I came here I was studying Computer Science at a rather large engineering school in the midwest. While I found it quite interesting I realized that it wasn't what I wanted to do with my life. Now I'm a philosophy major. I find the two fields are not as divorced as most people assume as they are both primarily about analyzing and understanding problems, although generally with different questions and goals. I have a fairly strong background in logic but it is heavily focused on the formal: algorithm design and Boolean algebra. I'm looking forward to expanding my understanding to general reasoning as well.
