Re: Dunkirk (Robert Wright & Mickey Kaus)

Bob, Bob, Bob....

The first rule of 501c3 success is to learn how to make the ask. I have never heard you make a proper ask. I would be delighted to coach you. I am a very successful fund...

Re: Reach Out and Touch Someone (Evan Smith & Joshua Trevino)

Evan Smith makes me proud to be from Austin. He is respectful but calls people on their BS. He always leaves me wanting more.

Re: The More Things Change (Robert Wright & Eli Lake)

Re: Lessons Learned: Breivik's Manifesto (Wajahat Ali & Mollie Ziegler Hemingway)

Re: Science Saturday: String Wars

I couldn't agree more. It was science. It had controversy presented in an atmosphere of mutual respect. It was comprehensible by a non-scientist (me). Yet I presume it was of interest to those...

Re: National Security Mother-Daughter Edition (Heather Hurlburt & Carol Hurlburt)

Re: Obama, Birtherism, and Racism (John McWhorter & Glenn Loury)

I have always found it fasciniating to listen to these two brilliant and well educated black men talk about race and racism in America. They have changed my own thoughts on the subject in profound...

Re: Organic Beet Farm Edition (Annie Lowrey & Tim Carney)

Re: Nuclear Power After Japan (John Horgan & Rod Adams)

Re: Denial of Service (Robert Wright & Catherine Fitzpatrick)
