Well worth a read from my insightful, incisive, and even inciteful colleague and "Stanford town" neighbor (though I might have a minor qualm or two about a couple of her points relating to colonial/revolutionary era America).

Yes, but Rick (my fellow ETHS grad) neglects to mention that the Red Sox fan was the guy who killed us (I was the r.a. in this project). He was a Holy Cross grad. When asked what impact losing the '75 WS had on him, he said it turned him into an alcoholic for 20 years.

If you want a podcast suitable for the 4th of July, which I hope will not be the last one we celebrate as citizens of a free state, this might be of interest. It's based on my book, Revolutionaries: A New History of the Invention of America. pioneerinstitute.org/featured/stanf…
