Hot ticket

I assume this is the same Chomsky lecture tour that is coming to Toronto? I was told tickets to hear this socialist man-of-the-people speak cost 100 dollars so I gave it a miss.

According to Carolyn Sellke of the Washington Square News, the NYU student online daily newspaper, Chomsky's talk, “Simple Truths, Hard Problems: Some Thoughts on Terror, Justice, and Self-Defense,” was a hot ticket…in a…full-to-capacity auditorium…hundreds…were turned away…and Graduate School of Arts and Science Dean Catharine Stimpson…called Chomsky 'our favorite political dissident.' ”

And then... rabble has the details. Twenty bucks still strikes me to be a bit steep for what I can only imagine is the same old same old. Is there a presidency Chomsky does not think is an imperial presidency?
