Update on where Brad’s been
Posted on April 5th, 2006 by Brad Spangler
For those who’ve been wondering where I’ve been the past few days, I’ve been going nuts trying to deal with an emergency server move and providing user support as best I could under the circumstances. My business life is in an upheaval accordingly, but the future looks arguably bright — I just need to get everything done all at once and it has had me overwhelmed.
As I had to restore this site from a backup, my latest posts are missing, but I dug them out of browser cache and will summarize here.
- Immigration Protests — Immigrants are, by and large, brave people who recognize the wisdom in crossing the state’s silly imaginary lines, so-called “bordersâ€, when their family’s future depends on it. Oppression, up to and including the prospect of being kidnapped by the state at any time, has been their lot for far to long. I have a great deal of sympathy for immigrants and find the recent willingness of so many of them to stand up to increasing oppression absolutely inspiring. Breathtakingly so. I salute them and second Adem Kupi’s declaration of solidarity.
- Environmental Issues — Don’t miss Thomas L. Knapp’s posting of excerpts from the DAGGER manifesto over at the ISIL environmental channel: Question Earthority!.
- Roderick Long’s Rothbard Memorial Lecture at the Austrian Scholar’s Conference — I’m incredibly honored to have been named and quoted in Roderick Long’s Rothbard Memorial Lecture at the Mises Institute’s Austrian Scholars Conference, “Rothbard’s ‘Left and Right’: 40 Years Later†[mp3] — in his concluding remarks, no less. Long’s lecture has crucial implications for the future of the libertarian movement and, therefore, of the world and all humanity. Listen.
I heard that and was delighted to hear him mention you! That is AWESOME! It was very insightful and funny. I just bought Rothbards Econ 101 in mp3 format and can’t wait to get started learning!
Thank you!
