  1. Hi Frank, I enjoyed viewing Hill's protest, and it put me in mind of George Carlin's seemingly contradictory standup performance "Saving the planet." Here's a link for the video with a written transcript:

    It might be interesting thought exercise to contrast the deployments of both warriors, Hill and Carlin.

    Happy Fall term!
