  • A comment on Talk: Larry Brilliant makes the case for optimism

    Sep 16 2009: My wife volunteered to translate this talk into Spanish months ago, only to find silence after submitting the translated text. To this date she has not received a comment, a correction, or even a rejection message.

    Sadly, when we allow enthusiastic energy to be lost, we score one for pessimism.
