The counter at the top of this blog tells me that people have come to this site a total of something over half a million times. This is, of course, nothing at all for any of the popular blogs and websites, but it is one hundred times as many students as passed through my classes in half a century. I am delighted that so many folks around the world have stopped by, and I hope they will continue to do so. My work at Bennett College has forced me to post less often, and also to put up shorter posts -- that and the fact that I may be running out of things to say!
We are now three weeks from the election. I am in a state of perpetual anxiety, I must confess, which will either be eased or turned into deep gloom by the outcome. I have been trained, as a philosopher, to view things sub specie aeternitatis, but the flesh is weak.
At all events, thank you for visiting, and do come back.
