E.O Wilson in the NY-ker

Nick Thompson

The recent interview with E.O. Wilson in the New Yorker pissed me off so bad I had to write them a letter.  Since the letter won’t be published, I am tempted to inflict it on all of you. 

 

Thanks for your patience,

 

Nick

Nick—Care to indulge in a bit of intellectual piracy and send out the PDF of the article that pissed you off? Otherwise those of us who don't have a subscription to the New Yorker won't really understand what you are writing about.

Fair enough.  Next transmission.   I have to admit that there parts I just did not understand, partly because I don’t think the interviewer understood them.  It’s conceivable that he redeems himself in those parts, but somehow I doubt it. 

 

Good to hear from you, Robert.
