It has taken a long time to bring into being, but it has some excellent articles, some original new translations, along with interesting discussions of those translations.

I was very fortunate to be flying to Canada for two job interviews on Bush’s inauguration day. One of them came through, I took it, and I never looked back. I didn’t think it would take 25 years to crumble. Even through the jadedness I am deeply sad.

Fwiw I have my snow tires on. My question is whether in this period of municipal transition will the bike lanes be plowed first

Or we’ve all been like frogs in boiling water since 1979. I’ve been telling people to watch Network since about 2015. It is an amazing film

I am of this view that this is just a poor piece of libertine literature, coming nowhere near the achievements of 17th and 18th century predecessors.

in the past week I have refereed two articles that clearly haven't bothered to read some of the works they've cited, or if they have they've completely missed the point.

fair enough. there is, however, a way of citing or referring to an article that does not do it justice. I am thinking of cases where the article in question is actually the first to make a particular point -- a simple acknowledgement of that would be progress.
