From Dr. Cheese-air-hack;
George Saunders interviews Bill Clinton for GQ here.
Excerpt:
Saunders: So much of what I've heard you say, if you just changed a couple words, is basically Buddhist epistemology. Is this something you've thought about?
Clinton: A lot. I've thought about it a lot. I'm reading a fascinating book, the Dalai Lama's most recent book, about his encounters with science. He's been fascinated with science since he was a boy, and I knew this from reading his autobiography, but this is literally his attempt to explain the intersection of how he practices his Buddhist faith with why he takes science seriously and why he believes in the scientific method. It's an attempt to integrate science and his faith. It's quite interesting, because most people who respect both science and religion simply say they're two different spheres with two different objectives.

I just got an email from Lynette at Film Arts alerting that TSROAW has been uploaded onto their site.

Pretty interesting experiment. Scorsese shoots a champagne commercial for Freixenet in the style of Hitchcock.
