we did an invent for him up at walden's pond with thoreau with david mccullough and ken burns in henley is trying to save cato lake in texas on the louisiana border. this is near karmic where a ladybird johnson was from but it's looks like louisiana, but it's it's in texas beautiful by you. stunning cypress trees and he works very hard to preserve that lake. he has his home there and this isolated part of the world. so i admire him for that. he picks one area that he loves and he tries to do something to protect it. go back to the beginning of the jack kerouac connection. um i just read on the road and then followed it up with subterraneans in the dharma bombs and visions of cody and start with on the road. what is obvious? it was great because it he wrote it in a with a kind of jazz rhythm and what a kind of spontaneity of prose there's a thought that spot, you know, i don't always agree with this. but again, i like people that i don't always have to agree with you and carowak used to say first thoughts best thought that the human minds first thoughts probably the true or more accurate

in the way that journalists get the opportunity to do or independent writers get to do.s david mccullough can sit aroundn and work on their craft as writers.e they're not teaching three courses a semester and grading papers and sitting in four-hour? meetings about this or that administrative item inside an academic classroom. i would also just add to that that there are some really good historians who are writers out there. it can sometimes be really difficult to find them. i think one thing that historians can do is make it easier for people to find our stuff. that, though, requires adhering to the mechanics of the social web. in other words, you have to work within the twitter ecosystem and the facebook ecosystem and google ecosystem for people to find your stuff which means you have to work with the devil a bit and hopefully it will lead to people reading your book but, again, i go back to the fact that so far there's not a lot of evidence that's happening. so that's why i say it would be great if we could design a new set of incentive structures for the web where the web would surface
