Excellent diary, marco.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.

Thanks, but it is nothing more than a translation.  It was more of an experiment than anything.  I was hoping to find an interesting way to present alternative interpretations of the same topic/incident/phenomenon, etc. in one diary.  But as I did this, it started to feel more like a frosh exercise in literary analysis.  I think the really interesting part will be getting responses to particular points made in these reviews -- or even better, in the book itself, or in one of Todd's interviews.

Still I suspect there is some as yet undiscovered potential in cross-language, or simply cross-author, comparative diaries, as I DoDo seems to say here.  Requires a lot of work, though!

Truth unfolds in time through a communal process.
