Amiri Baraka, Great Poet R.I.P.

Listen to him from 1984.  Rest in peace Amiri Baraka.

Amiri Baraka reads "Wailers," "Sounding," and "How to beat Reagan." Simon Ortiz sings "Whale gave this song." This appears to be the second half of a two-part recording. The first half does not exist.

Hmmm.. I thought I posted a comment here, but it has obviously been lost in twitter space. It is a drag. I liked having a place where some of us could still easily reconnect. I guess I'll revert to using my goggle blog. If you have one, let me know what it is so I can follow you. http://miguelitoh2o.blogspot.mx/

Total's North Sea Gas Leak From Space

Comments from Posterous Quinn MacKeen responded: Quinn MacKeen Thankee Froggie. Hadn't known about this, and it just triggered a good long set of searches and reading cross the web. Interesting that the aging platforms in the North Sea share this problem. They're making positive noises about being able to handle it, and maybe they can, even without drilling a relief well, but I think they learned from BP that they need to keep the hype down, and the coverage down. Good to see the ISS picking up on them!
