The Scheme of Things!!

....I have been typing and deleting my ideas of an eye-catching introduction for the last one hour. I allways kept ending before a blank screen!! Was it beginner's fear? (I can hardly describe myself as a beginner in this!). Was it my inadequate knowledge of a foreign language? (Angela from South Dakota said I write english better than many Americans do!). Lack of inspiration perhaps? (Bingo!!)

I thought to myself I had to take it easy, not to panic. It is not the end of the world after all. Quite the contrary, it is a new beginning. It is an electronic edition in its enfant age. So why not be high spirited and cheerful, why not say those plain, simple and logical things an intro is supposed to say? Who I am for example, where I come from, what e-NALLAX is all about; oh yes!! And what does it mean for heaven's sakes??? NOPE!! You have to be a plain, simple and reasonable guy to accomplish all that. And since you are dealing with a complex, distorted and teasing kind of man (or is it not a man?) you are facing a series of riddles instead of statements.

Well, let me fire your imagination, as the good old (really old) Rolling Stones used to shout!! I am older, much older, than the Stones and so is my civilization. I love the blue of the sea that surrounds me and the white of the clouds in a windy spring day, which is why I use them in my flag. East and West merge in me and I am the amalgam, or the explosive material. I love women and they love me too, that is why they are coming here in thousands during summertime. I do not produce pizza though and I hate bullfighting (sorry Jose!)*. I am tiny to the eye but mean much more to those who know and pay respect to history. Plus I run the 200 metres faster than anyone lately (sorry Ato!)**. Still don't have a clue? Sorry pal (or gal )! I told you more than necessary.

Well enough with my national identity! After all the object of my affection is e-NALLAX. An alternative, slightly weird, kind of unusual electronic edition, created due to a quest of undisciplined creativity (not sure myself what I mean here). This word, e-NALLAX, is an adverb in my native language actually meaning... Oh no, oooh noo! I am not going to say it so easily. This is a knowledge you have to earn, by reading me to the very last page (unscrupulous blackmail, I admit it!). Anyhow and beyond any other use or purpose that such a turbulent idea might serve, the utter meaning of this project is to:
a. Make your day,
b. Inflate my ego,
c. Terrify Ted Turner and
d. Give a new meaning to the utility of software under the name of Trash Can...
Still want to do it? Be my guests!!
