  • Pretty primitive audio set up. The USA of technical innovation!

  • Holy shit mon! Ever heard of Lavalier mics? They're talking, not playing in a band.

  • Vidal is the greatest---But America lost its reason for education in Puritan times. For more than a century the transatlantic races managed to coexist. When Puritans arrived, it was God's holy people "sent" here to conquer. So when Mass. Bay and Hartford CT began a war on the CT Pequots---without learning their enemy's language, social ways, landscape, or ways of war---they could only create a fiasco. Our schools taught that "victory" as fact, and it's been guiding us to catastrophe since.

  • That's the Republican Playbook all right: capitalize on fear and anger.

  • Where is the rest? Appeared to be a great anecdote.

  • Truly Love Gore Vidal.

  • Actually, part 2, it's not working for me in any of the three browsers I tried. If it does for someone else, please let me know! It is supposedly on in a few days:

    Not sure which CSPAN that'll be, but you can check it out. :)

  • Actually, it is on CSPAN -- I can't post the URL for some stupid reason, but go to the archive, search for "gore vidal", and choose most recent: there it'll be.

  • Why can't we get this on CSPAN? They piss me off! :) Thanks for posting. Vidal is a treasure.

  • POST MORE!

  • Shame he's cut of in 'mid-anecdote' bu thanks anyway - good to have him back
