Dear Michael Sandel,

I kind of wish that your most recent entry had been your first posting. It's a good one, and I really would like to have a chance to talk about this issue with you, preferably over a bottle of good wine and with no audience to worry about. But at this point I'm ready to let you have the last word.



Best,
Chas
