I think about you often Russ.

In addition to many other commitments, you produced another year’s worth of valuable Econtalk podcasts. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing this Russ.

Your college is lucky to have you and you them.

A truly inspiring community. We should all be so lucky to find ourselves loved by such a community in our lives as well as offering love to those within such a community.

Excellent and “bittersweet” insights here Russ. Many thanks. Great to see the value of thinking, reflection and truth seeking celebrated in such trying circumstances.

What a lovely post.

Parts reminded me of CS Lewis' essay Learning in Wartime.
