Saturday, part 2.

Over 100k, which took me a bit over 4 hours, you can easily get bored on a bike. I fight that boredom by listening to podcasts. Yesterday, I listened to three different ones. The first was from Big Ideas, the "only regularly scheduled program in North America devoted to the art of the lecture." This episode was an English professor talking about TS Eliot's The Wasteland. It was interesting enough that this physicist might have to find a copy of it and read it.

Then I listened to The Kindling's Muse where Dick Staub and Earl Palmer talked about CS Lewis' book Letters to Malcolm Chiefly on Prayer. Interesting book, which once again I am going to have to read.

Then I listened to Science Friday, an NPR program hosted by Ira Flatow. The one I listened to he was interviewing EO Wilson discussing his book of fiction The Anthill. Once again, another book I am going to have to read.

It is curious that all three authors discussed go by 2 initials and their last name. What's that all about?

That got me through the first 3 hours. The rest was listening to my bicycle play list. Music to pedal to.
