First, this blog replaces my previous blog, thecosmoplitanlawyerblogspot.com . Second, unlike that earlier blog, the present one is primarily meant as a record of my readings. It is not meant to suggest that others will be or should be interested in what I read. And third, in a sense, it is a public diary of one who is an alien in his own American culture. A person who feels at home just about anywhere, except in his birthplace . . . America.

TO MAN'S GREAT DETRIMENT
David Duchovny, Holy Cow (New York: Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 2015) ("We are all animals and we have our place in the womb of Mother Nature. Only man has separated himself form the great chain o being and from all the other animals, and I think that has been to his great detriment, and sadness, and to ours." Id. at 203-204.).
