Batman (#99):

Love this post (and many of your others as well). I think we are very close in our views, and had similar experiences in our education (I went to Yale 1965-1969; the “revolution” was on by then, but hadn’t yet infected the faculty to any great degree)…

I studied molecular biology and biophysics, but took a lot of English and German lit, and my roommate, a philosophy major who became department chairman at Norte Dame, educated me further…

Then I went to medical school…

On or about 9/11/2009 I was able to realize that I had been transformed from a classic (Cold War) liberal to (a bit to the right of center) conservative.
