Major topics:

1. Thought for the day:

   We also insist that politics demands complex thinking and that poetry is an arena for such thinking: a place to explore the constitution of meaning, of self, of groups, or nations,—of value.

   —Charles Bernstein, Revenge of the Poet-Critic in My Way

2. Administrative Issues:
   1. Section issues? Crashing?
