Introduction Compact

"...But my faith is small; it does not permit my mind to behold anything so high: I am of the earth, earthy. I am thinking of these mortals who love goodness simply for the skae of goodness and do not expect any rewards for it from any quarter. These straight forward and reliable people, it seems to me, should also be fully satisfied with this holy impulse of love and with the no-less-holy endurance of the humble hero of my true and artless tale." (Nikolai Leskov, "The Sentry").

First a disclaimer: I will moan and groan about many subjects regarding SI on which I've been a complete hypocrite. However this confession of past transgressions, is only for transgressions commited due to righteous indignation and some rookie (1st yr of SI) mistakes...
