It’s no FDA v. Brown & Williamson, but there’s no accounting for taste I guess.
Very nice, Sasha.
Great idea.
I enjoyed that, Mr. Law Prof. Thanks!
Excellent choice and reading, Prof. S. Volokh!
Push, live, and learn, no doubt you do, but you are too young to feel the push to live and learn with one’s last breath in sight and increasingly likely with each setting sun. Too many of us are concerned with legacy the older we get and would rather establish than explore. Ego becomes plinthed like a statue and self-discovery stops.
I think poetry Wednesday should be a real thing. There is so much good stuff out there we overlook.
Excellent, Sasha.

Beyond the utmost bound of human thought.”
