Quote, Unquote
It seems plain and self-evident, yet it needs to be said: the isolated knowledge obtained by a group of specialists in a narrow field has in itself no value whatsoever, but only in its synthesis with all the rest of knowledge and only inasmuch as it really contributes in this synthesis toward answering the demand, “Who are we?”
~ Erwin Schrödinger

Gin Blossoms – Til I Hear It From You
Merlin Otello here. Many of us who came of age in the 1990s had the Gin Blossoms as part of the sound track of our young lives. The song “Til I Hear It From You” rang in my ears as I read Joe Biel’s Gin Blossoms: Suicide, Corporatism, Addiction, Creativity, and the Lessons of Doug Hopkins – published in 2018 by Microcosm Publishing. At 52 pages, it is a short, sad, but compelling read.

Rush Limbaugh is the third great progenitor of today’s political talk radio partly because he’s a host of extraordinary, once-in-a-generation talent and charisma—bright, loquacious, witty, complexly authoritative—whose show’s blend of news, entertainment, and partisan analysis became the model for legions of imitators.
