Sound of the Mushroom

This blog is my effort to puzzle out the world. I'll write whatever comes into my head, but probably return frequently to my obsessions. I seem to be interested in the workings of democracy, economics, the functioning of social groups, the future of humanity, scientific concepts, statistical concepts, logical thinking, nuclear power, evolution, space, the environment and most everything else. I'll try to post only when I think I have my own angle on something.

Need for a Bright Line - Fact or Fiction

Gregg Easterbrook has an opinion about fictitious memoirs in TNR. Apparently a friend of his, Deborah Caulfield, exposed James "Lie" Frey as a fraud several years ago. He says publisher Nan Talese had to know, and she comes off looking pretty bad. On the other hand, Oprah comes off as an honest broker, burned by a bad client.
