David Koch & His Project, Crepuscular Raise, Inc.

Hello all who might come upon this blog about David Koch and his project, Crepuscular Raise, Inc.

I don't know how much I can say about thisweb site that I was referred to by a friend of mine. The web site is the home page for an organization called Crepuscular Raise, Inc., which describes a mission of "Inspiring and empowering the people who are a part of the problem to become their own solution."

Maybe some of you surfing this blog will find something good from this site.

What would reduce recidivism in, especially, young offenders?

The word "crepuscular", as defined in The American Heritage College Dictionary, 4th Edition, means "Of or like twilight; dim." As a zoological term, "crepuscular" is defined as "Becoming active at twilight or before sunrise, as do bats and certain insects and birds." Perhaps the author of the book Slaying the Dragon - The Journey From the Dungeon to the Ivory Tower meant for the name of his organization to recall a catalyst for turning the dim twilight into the day -- for taking talented and bright-eyed people who seem to be in a dim situation and helping them to fulfill their dreams and re-enter the world like a phoenix rising.
