On Sunday March 6, 4:00 – 5:15 EST we are holding a blog event which will be a two-way affair: I will have the pleasure of trying to answer questions participants have and participants will have the pleasure of stumping me with questions I can’t answer.  And a good time will be had by all!

This will be a fundraiser for Doctors Without Borders.  Donations are voluntary but encouraged for this great cause.

The format: I will take live questions through chat.  The questions can be on ANY topic that anyone is interested in.  If it is something I don’t know anything about (Kant’s second critique or quantum mechanics) or that I would rather not talk about (that little incident when I was 16….) I’ll just say so.  I will get through as many questions as I can, answering easy ones briefly and taking as long as I need to deal with more complicated ones.  My only request is that questions are direct questions, not lectures, sermons, admonitions, condemnations, expositions of one’s favorite views, or statements of one’s opinions so the rest of the world can hear and convert.  In fact, I guess I can assure you, the direct ones are the ones I’ll answer!

Interested?   The event will be Sunday, March 6, 4:00-5:30 pm EST.

Every penny we bring in will go to Doctors without Borders.  As you know, this is an all-out amazing organization that is doing the world a world of good.  Right now its services are in desperate need, possibly more desperate than ever, with so much going on:  massive starvation in Yemen and Afghanistan and the horrible situation unfolding in Ukraine.  And those are just the ones front and center in our heads.

Our SUGGESTED DONATION for the event is $30.  But we will take anything from $1 to something in the high six figures.  Don’t feel obligated to give, but if you give, don’t feel obligated to hold yourself back. (!)  We will then sing your eternal praises.

And here is one additional item.  The Highest Donor will be allowed to have a twenty-minute one-on-one back-and-forth with me on any questions of interest.   If you would like a shot at that, please send an email with your proposed donation to my personal assistant, Diane Pittman, at [email protected].  Bids need to be in to Diane by midnight Friday March 4.  We will notify all bidders with further information about the process.

I hope you can make the event!  I’m very much looking forward to it.
