Music and Harvard
The posters for the Harvard-Yale Football Concert have come back from the printers. They look fantastic, so I’m going to make sure they are put up all over the house.
Come to our concert! We are singing some very good music, including a premier of a piece commissioned for the Harvard Glee Club, composed by a Minnesotan named Carol Barnett. It is set to the text of a sermon given by John Donn in the 17th century. Barnett expresses the meaning of the text very skillfully in the many musical textures of the piece. I think you will like it.

Misc and Technology
What am I still doing awake at this hour? I really need to go to sleep. Too bad that problem with the MD5 module kept me up this long…

Politics
Regime change is a fancy of the U.S. government. At this time democracy is not a possibility in Iraq. Any coalition government set up in the aftermath of a war on Iraq will fail due to internal power struggles, and Iraq will have another tyrant for a leader. What Iraq needs is a dictator, just not Sadam Hussein.
