For posts that other members of the book club might be making. Right? Because people don't want to read about me and bats when important things are happening. Like...

The death of Jane Jacobs. I'm sorry it took this to prompt me to pick up her masterwork, The Death and Life of Great American Cities.

The continuing events in Durham, and the reaction in the blogosphere. (See, or try to forget, the comments thread of these posts especially.)

Or, you know, you could just discuss this world-shattering news for a while.

Thanks to the guest posters at Bitch PhD for all (well, except the last one) of this. You'll also have to look there for the links to people defending the Duke players. I'm not going there.
