Thank you. Flow 544

Good interview Scott

I thank each of you for this important - and valuable - service to Dear Ol’ Duke.

My favorite player from that great Duke team.

This video would’ve helped a lot of people out in 2020. Great discussion of the book.

Thank you for putting this up online ❤enjoyed it a lot

There are traces of Nietzsche... Suffering must be confronted.. and Dostoyevsky's Ivan 8n Brother's Karamazov...

I look at The Plague essentially as a prayer.... prayer for collective action in the face of overwhelming tragedy/ calamity. There is no short cut... except confronting it... Struggle..The Dr. Reus shows the way... and Tarrou joins him in this struggle.

Was in a study out of Stanford looking at changes in average resting heart rate to predict health issues.

Fascinating. I would have taken one of your classes!

Wow! This is really amazing, Molly. Our family makes t-shirt quilts out of our favorite shirts and pass down the rest of the kids clothes to other family members. I'm so encouraged by your goals to help southern Appalachia thrive. Thank you for your passion!

Very well done written and video story pieces!

This came out beautifully!! He's an exceptional guy and I'm so happy I had the chance to help with the interview

Except that Boenhoffer was a staunch antisemite.

Awesome!

I do not believe "community of faith" is an accurate description. Camus prizes sacrifice as the highest moral Principle. In some of his writings he uses the term sacred. Obviously the same root as sacrifice. It shows that 1 can be courageous without a deity or a transcendent power. It shows the courage and strength of a mature human being. Faith and believe usually point to constructs that are stories. But human action is real and can be seem, objectively. Albert Camus believes in the power and strength of humanity. It says to me that we underestimate ourselves. It also implies that we give too much power, or turn over our power to a dream called God.

Some great shots from our prescribed burns over the years in this video. We love "good fire" = safe, controlled and prescribed. Such an important management tool for Forest Health and wildfire prevention..

Capitalism is causing climate change so we should be doing a controlled burn of private property and the parasite state.

SOUND SUCKS

This is a pathetic Interview, bringing religion into existentialism, and can clearly see this man really struggling to speak ,I feel sorry for him

Loved it! Just reread the book and adored your commentaries!

Reynolds Price on Isak Dinesen...absolute heaven.

do dogs do deliberate deception? answer: yes. I had a dog fake an injured leg because our new puppy was getting all the attention and he was jealous.

bonobo on toplist of favorite animals. Keep up the good work to protect them in the wild.

Very dry and dull conversation. No oooh laa laa at all !

Loved this video, as a Botantist and former Lemur Keeper with Charlie Welch at Louisiana Purchase Gardens & Zoo I concur with your message and mission. You guys are top notch in your field, I which that I could work with you guys for the Preservation of Madagascars Forest and Lemur sustainability. Keep up the good work.

Start at 23:00

This is a beautiful conversation about The Plague. Thanks.

According to Amazon, Towers... is frequently sold as with The Rack by A.E. Ellis.

"We make too much of the differences and not enough of the parallels"

DefMo!!! That was delightful!

Beautiful vid! thanks....

When can we see snow in NC?

If you want an inside view of how Pinkerton Detectives were employed for any number of sleazy political reasons by people in power, read "Two Evil Isms, Pinkertonism and Anarchism", by longtime Pinkerton man Charles A Siringo (1915).

I also have a problem with the Brigid O'Shaughnessy character in the book, and doubly so in Huston's movie because I think Mary Astor was miscast. I am so used to the femme fatale being believable and IMO Astor is not. She may have matched the book's character as described but I think Huston should have cast an actress who could portray both innoocence and the ability to be cold and calculating when circumstances require it.

Read this in 2021, dang!

Sir what is wrong with your jackets? I mean jackets

thank you!! so great to hear a thorough discussion after reading this stirring novel!

The audio is spotty.

I find the question of whether "Laurie" is a man, fascinating. "Laurie" is the same spelling Louisa May Alcott used for her male character in "The Little Women." Being male would certainly up the ante to Laurie's existentialist crisis, and i like that the author made it subtle enough to pass the censorship of the 1950s. I notice that no one ever actually confirms that "Laurie" is a niece (not a nephew) and it doesn't seem as if the gender is ever actually revealed. Reminds me of the famous Toni Morrison short story: "Recitatif" where one character is white and one is black, but neither girl's race is ever revealed - you have to fill in that blank with your own assumptions.

we often take things for granted, until they are no longer readily available. Duke, for the last 9+ months, proves that truism.

Why is early sociosexual/prosocial behaviour disturbing (might be due to clandestine behaviour due to inter-male competition in humans). Among Trobrianders, !Kung San, Etoro, Sambia people and some egalitarian hunter-gatherers they do the same since they don't have institutionalised marriage/amatonormativity as a byproduct of agricultural/pastoral revolution. They might have different early levels of testosterone due to different effects on epigenetic expression. Things like touch starvation (skin hunger) and is also one of the last things on people's minds.

cant help it but i do not find Chafe’s comments too interesting or enlightening. To me he tries to sound more knowledgeable here than he really is.
