Geoff Dyer - On Punctuality.mp4

In this secular sermon, Geoff Dyer explores the historical sacrifices and successes of punctual people and the trouble caused by low-lifes who waste other people's time. He urges us to be less sloppy about time-keeping, a virtue which he sees as increasingly threatened by a culture in which mobile phones have made arrangements increasingly approximate and flexible.

Geoff Dyer is author of several books including 'Yoga For People Who Can't Be Bothered To Do It' (2004), 'The Ongoing Moment' (2007), 'Paris Trance' (2003) and his most recent: 'Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi' (2009).

The live presentation of this sermon was delivered at The Horse Hospital, London on Sunday 30 November 2008.

A perfectly pitched Eliot quote, Mr. Dyer.  Now, how about a short seminar on neutrinos?
