I got my latest Gilbert magazine.David Zach is on the cover and the theme is "The Future." The interview with Dave was really interesting, as he is the only professional futurist I know. I loved the quote in his interview about statistics getting tortured. It brought to mind a funny thought about numbers being hanged, drawn, and quartered. The forty-four turned into an eleven right before my eyes, poor thing.
Anyway, a lot of other great articles in there, including Chesterton on telephones, which I loved.
Speaking of interviews, I interviewed Betty Aberlin today for the magazine. Not to be confused with Lady Aberlin, niece of King Friday XIII, whom she plays on television. She was wonderful and I can't wait for you to read all about her in a future issue of Gilbert.

Glad I stumbled onto this blog.
ReplyDeleteWas reading, recently, Chesteron on Dickens. It is a brilliant bit of writing and literary criticism. In particular his chapter on Dicken's characters.
