Dear Friends:
C-SPAN aired my Nov. 8 lecture at B&N in Los Angeles this past weekend, and (quicker than I expected) sent me the link. For those of you who missed the TV broadcast, and are having problems with insomnia, I provide this below. It's basically the same lecture I gave in Seattle four days earlier, and posted on this blog; tho the Q&A is obviously different. Anyway, enjoy!
