Donald Croft Brickner

Donald Croft Brickner is a big picture philosopher (and would-be prophet) whose distinctive edge and we're-all-going-to-survive-death-regardless world view permeate his unexpectedly disarming but pointed social critiques, which are oft-published on numerous Internet sites (and if you aren't familiar with his unique-anywhere-in-the-world work, simply run a search engine using his full name). Don achieves his penchant for making some pretty deft and spot-on predictions mostly via living-life-in-the-field instincts, his life background and education, and his astute extrapolations from often severely limited sources. Tenability rules. He's well-versed, compelling, gregarious, and sometimes unexpectedly funny. His ontological interests and foundations serve to support surprisingly optimistic resolutions despite an intentional and oftentimes grim, taking-no-prisoners' writing style: tough guy, soft heart ... and all of that. A twice honorably-discharged military veteran with a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Maine, Don welcomes meeting (and making) new friends, always.
