Dr. Lewis was remarkable and indefatigible as both an historian and an eyewitness to the Kent State shootings. I interviewed him on the subject in 2010 and was deeply touched when he complimented me afterwards on the interview, having given hundreds over the years.

Gandalf really is heroic when you consider that there were originally five wizards and one of them turned evil, two of them fucked off and went out east to have orgies, and one is just super into talking to gophers. The one last hope of free peoples was the stoner and that crazy mfer did it.

As an established writer, I'm not really worried by AI, because AI can't do what I do. It can only pretend. And I've cultivated the kind of audience that can spot the difference.
BUT... that word "established" is load bearing. The opportunity to LEARN to do what I do is what AI is taking away.

One of the things I will include in my new book on history from below is a series of discussions I had with Christopher Hill about the relationship between 17c religious radicals (Levellers, Diggers, Ranters, etc.) and late 20c liberation theologians. They used the same Biblical passages.
