Nicholas Humphrey’s latest book on the mystery of consciousness travelled with me to Crete, Latvia and America. And the intellectual journey it took me on has half-persuaded me that his evolutionary approach will one day provide an answer.

An interesting critique of Andrew Cohen
I don’t care what your talent is, just do something like this whenever you can and the world becomes that much more livable.
A little marker to note the passing of a great Canadian institution. Tomorrow night, in Massey Hall, The Rheostatics play their last gig. They’ve been at it for over 20 years and it’s coming to an end. If, like me, you never saw them live, you can download some of their shows here.
Writing today in the Globe and Mail about their career, guitarist and hockey writer extraordinaire Dave Bidini explained the band’s ethos succinctly:”…We were four satellites who got a long and if you listened closely or saw us on a good night, you got bit.” Yup. Still one of my all time favourite road trip bands. Nothing like 2067 playing at full volume to keep me awake as the miles tick past on northern Vancouver Island.
Thanks guys, for the great music and the great take on what our country is all about.
