Smart People, Smart Thinking

I dedicate so much time to stupidity and the negative here, I’d like to point out a few smart people. Of course they tend to say negative things too sometimes, but they point out hope as often as not.
Eric Hobsbawm, historian and thinker. Stan Goff, former military man, although he’s quite cynical and his authenticity has been questioned often enough. Lewis Lapham over at Harper’s. Heck, Harpers and its wonderful weekly update. A.S. Byatt defending adult literature against the popularity of fluff.

I guess most of that is still pretty negative there. Well, call me a nattering nabob. I’ll have to try again later.
