Hello. I'm Robbie McClintock, a retired professor, born in 1939 in New York City. I've worked hard since my late teens, with little resonance, but still believe that by keeping at it someone sometime somewhere may find my work worthy of attention. For you I say my peace.
But it's hard. This year, 2025, things have become more contingent. What I'm doing has become less clear to me. I've lived continually aware that intentions, mine and those of others, always fall short of fulfillment, forcing assessments, redirection, moving on, swimming towards a distant shore in a medium in which I could move myself with purposeful direction. New waves make it harder to keep the shore insight and it's taking grfeater effort to simply keep afloat.
