Got back a little earlier from the Robert Spencer class I mentioned below. I misunderstood the program somewhat. After a keynote address by the Israeli Consul-General of Boston, the group split into sessions, so you had to choose which "lesson" you were going to attend - Terrorism, anti-Semitism and...one other subject which slips my mind at the moment. I had thought all three subjects were going to be taught in succession - one each time over the three sessions, but they weren't. I was a bit disappointed as Dr. Charles Jacobs (last seen here at the March for Darfur and here at the Boston for Israel rally) was teaching this session of the anti-Semitism lesson. I had hoped to see Spencer tonight and Jacobs next time, but sadly, I had to choose.

I chose the Spencer lecture as I was informed that Dr. Jacobs speaks fairly frequently in the Boston area, and besides, Spencer recognized me and greeted me at the door which was mighty friendly of him - and besides, he looks like he's been workin' out since last we met (Happy now, Robert? :) ). The good news is, of course, that this means I will have two more chances to hear Robert Spencer speak.

It was time extremely well spent as one might expect. I wish everyone could hear Robert Spencer speak. I did take notes, though I'm never sure what kind of an entry they'll make until I sit down to write. I'll be on the road pretty-well all day tomorrow, so blogging will be light to non-existent, but I'll try to get something down within the next few days.
