I've started every morning this week on NRO, listening to Dr. Sowell. Now that the Yeti has spoiled the surprise and I've seen the whole interview, I have a reason to sleep in!
Awesome interview, yet again, Peter. Thanks also to Dr. Sowell for sharing his thoughts with us.

Last December 31st, when Walter Williams was filling in for Rush Limbaugh, he interviewed Dr. Sowell. One could almost hear the universe threatening to break under the weight of sheer awesomeness.

Dr. Sowell's reaction of incredulity at 9:03 is absolutely priceless!
I propose a caption contest.

Fine interview, Mr. Robinson. I will try, somehow, to get this book packed into the duffle of our almost 19 year old, when he heads off to Basic this month.

I appreciate that Dr Sowell is convinced the average citizen, in regards to their future, is capable of making their own decisions, deal with the circumstances of said decisions and adjust accordingly better than the brightest bureaucrat who ever cashed a paycheck in government.
Booyah! Dr Sowell, may your tribe increase.
