Do you know TED?

That's Technology, Entertainment, Design, a site based on an annual conference dedicated to ideas. There are over 200 talks available from participants like Anna Deavere Smith, excerpting her solo show "On the Road: A Search for American Character." She does Studs Terkel, convict Paulette Jenkins, a Korean shopkeeper and a bull rider.

I am overwhelmed by

the available resources, Cheryl. Life is short, too short.  BBC's "In Our Time" is excellent, too.  I can manage this one as I can listen while I paint.  Check this out and be sure to click to one of the categories.
