So he starts with his question-that-turned-into-a-speech which Kinsella answered, and then Schulman continued to disrupt the meeting after it was over and a new speaker was trying to take the floor with Schulman&#39;s argument with a guy in the back of the room, where he shouted at the guy, &quot;Do you know who I am?! Do you know who I am?!&quot; over and over. Meanwhile I approached this douche and yelled at him, &quot;Hey, take it outside! Take it outside!&quot; in deference to the new speaker due to speak. So after seeing that performance, I can&#39;t say I have much respect left for the guy :\</p> <p> New speaker was David Friedman, btw, who gave an excellent talk on follow-on comments to his <em>Machinery of Freedom</em>.</p> <div id="yass_bottom_edge" style="background-position:0px 0px;position:absolute;margin:0px;padding:0px;border-width:0px;height:0px;left:0px;top:228px;width:100%;display:block;"> &nbsp;</div><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archive.freecapitalists.org:443/forums/thread/503261.aspxSat, 10 Nov 2012 06:41:00 GMT944abf2b-d1be-4bf2-990d-438cb0e377e9:503261Geoffrey Allan Plauché0https://archive.freecapitalists.org:443/forums/thread/503261.aspxhttps://archive.freecapitalists.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=27&PostID=503261<p> Many of you may be familiar with J. Neil Schulman, the author of libertarian science fiction novel <em>Alongside Night</em>. He&#39;s adapting his Prometheus Hall of Fame Award-winning novel into a movie starring Kevin Sorbo.</p> <p> My webzine, <a href="http://prometheus-unbound.org/"><em>Prometheus Unbound</em></a>, is hosting a live author chat with Schulman via Google+ Hangouts on Air today (that&#39;s Saturday, November 10th) at 9PM EST as part of our online book club.</p> <p> If you&#39;re not familiar with it, Google+ is Google&#39;s social network and a Hangout is a live video chat that can accomodate up to 10 people at the same time. The &quot;on Air&quot; part means it&#39;ll be streaming live so that anyone who can&#39;t fit into the chat can watch it on Google+ or our YouTube channel. A recording of the event will also be uploaded to YouTube afterward.</p> <p> You&#39;re all invited to join us for this event. If you aren&#39;t able to get into the chatroom itself or can&#39;t make it at all, you can send questions for us to ask Schulman for you.</p> <p> For more details on the event, check out the <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/events/cnohg0u56np5qk5uj4duoporrio">official Google+ event page</a>.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
