Not the Liberian Dictator

Check out this video.

After Heather Munroe-Blum speaks horrendous French for a while, she switches to what I can only assume is even more horrific Japanese. But then skip ahead to about minute 50 and Charles Taylor (the McGill philosopher and political scientist, not the Liberian dictator) and a U of T science dude have a sweet conversation about the "rift" between the humanities and sciences.

I liked it.

Ahaha, amazing. I'm only a minute or so in.

I'm excited to hear what Maioni has to say.

slooooooooow loooooooadddderrrrrrrr

Taylor was my professor's professor when my professor was at McGill. Thus, we read Taylor in class. And by that I mean I was too strung out for the last month to read Taylor at all, and will probably get a C+ in the class.
