Well, at this point it looks like we might not get to attend Michael Pollan's interview and dinner in Louisville on Friday because it is sold out! I must say that creates quite a set of mixed feelings. First, I am very disappointed that we are going to miss out on this opportunity to see and hear an extremely thought provoking author right here in the Commonwealth; but, on the other hand, I am pretty thrilled that an author of this caliber with a message that seems a bit outlandish by Kentucky standards, can sell out a venue in Kentucky! Perhaps there is reason to hope!
All is not lost even if we discover that he sold it out because there were only fifty seats available because KET is taping the event and it will be on KET2 on Tuesday February 5 at 9 p.m. (that is channel 23 on EPB cable). You also need to click hereand see the many wonderful resources and copies of articles Michael has written on the subject of our food abyss over the last few years. We can likely learn as much here as we would have by actually seeing him.

Through the magic of political connections, our friend Janet O'Koon was able to secure for us passes to see Pollan speak at the Kentucky Center Friday.
His new book, In Defense of Food, is as enlightening, although quite different than, or favorite The Omnivores Dilemma.
It is exciting to be able to support someone whom,I believe,it is a vanguard of a new and important movement.
We will keep you posted.
