I go everywhere and give talks

Thanks to the generosity of the National University of Singapore, I've got a semester of leave with which to travel the USA giving talks and a nice travel grant to pay for it. So I'm going to travel the country giving talks and meet all the philosophers I can!

R&Rs R us

Just got my 3rd revise and resubmit of the year! That makes it R&R&R&R&R&R, I guess.

I still need to send back the first one, but it had 9 pages of very good comments and I realized I had to rewrite a lot of the paper. The second and third ones don't require quite as much revision. It's left me feeling a bit like Buridan's ass about which one to work on, but it's time to just go on ahead and gobble up one of the three bales of hay.
