Major parade and celebration in North Korea

What's in a name?

So, where does the verity•think name came from?  It comes from three things:

  1. To highlight the fact that I am sharing my personal thoughts - not those of an organization or group (i.e. groupthink),
  2. To pay respect to the concept of doublethink, outlined by George Orwell in 1984, which had a huge impact on me while working in North Korea, and
  3. To make a play on my surname - Verity - which is defined as “a true principle or belief, esp. one of fundamental importance”.
