"I Have Sworn Upon the Altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." -Thomas Jefferson

The Founders understood that essentially language control is mind control, and that to insure the free person-hood of the citizenry, language must be FREED. The Founders also understood that freedom of speech, LIKE ALL FREEDOMS, cannot be divorced from responsibility; in the case of free speech, it is our duty to understand grammar, logic, and rhetoric (what is known in the canon of the Classical Liberal education known as "The Trivium") to defend ourselves and our families from tyranny on all fronts. This is why the freedom of speech is the very FIRST amendment in the Bill of Rights!

Mental Self Defense: n. - The art of protecting one's mind from the manipulations of big government, Madison Avenue, and other con-artists by developing situational awareness regarding social engineering and studying the Trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric) from classical liberal education.

"In religion and politics people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue but have taken them at second-hand from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing." - Mark Twain

"If you were to ask me to define intelligence, compassion, ethics, integrity, sincerity and pure passion for the world around us, I could do it in just two words - Jake Shannon. That's why I am thrilled to have Jake on AM 630 K-Talk, The Voice of Utah."
Dickie Shannon
Station Manager, AM 630 K-TALK


"I've spent much time in the company of hypnotists and in the company of hypnosis researchers (psychologists and scientist-clinicians), and from my experience there was no love lost between the two cultures in general. Many of their attitudes tend to be at odds to say the least. I have to say though that Jake comes as close to bridging them as both a practitioner of the arts and the aficionado of the sciences, as anyone. And I have a strong respect for that."
Todd Ian Stark
Philadelphia, PA

His deep knowledge of quantitative finance, as well as his excellent communication skills, both verbally and in writing, allowed him to explain complex finance topics to a wide variety of audiences. He is very resourceful and independent, and consistently performed above my expectations."
