Argh. Gene Baur -- the founder of Farm Sanctuary, and an authors whose book I found really moving -- is going to be giving a talk at my local library. I would love to see him, and nobody really ever comes out to this library -- we're really in the middle of nowhere, and surrounded by farmland, and there really aren't enough animal activist people to support talks by someone like him too often. And since there would be pretty few people at the talk, I'd probably get a chance to actually talk to him if I wanted to. And the date he's going to be here is the same date that I have something else I'm doing in NYC. He's given talks in NYC dozens of times, but never when I've been able to go.
This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Gene Baur was here a couple of weeks ago (also in the middle of nowhere surrounded by rural countryside)and gave some strong talks. His ideas have a much broader appeal than a strict Vegan or anti-meat approach. His admiring audiences include both young activists and elderly farmers who are aghast at the abuses of modern agribusiness.

Yeah, I can see that.
I really want to visit Farm Sanctuary sometime. I was planning to go last fall, when I was attending a conference at Cornell, but I ended up not going to that conference because the roads were flooded.

That would be one hell of a commute. Slightly worse than mine even.
