Michael and Madeleine

If you are in Indianapolis today, you can hear Michael Pollan and Madeleine Albright. This is so great! What a wonderful city to live it!

However, they are speaking at the exact same time (noon) at different venues. Michael Pollan will be at the Scottish Rite Cathedral downtown for the Spirit and Place Festival, and Secretary Albright will appear at the Indianapolis Museum of Art in support of a new exhibit of her pins.

Had I not already purchased one ticket, I would have had a VERY difficult time deciding. On the one hand is a tremendously intelligent and influential woman--a role-model to me. On the other, the figurehead for my current passion--local, sustainable food for everyone. Which one of these?

I bought my (cheap $15 balcony) ticket for Michael Pollan before I knew about Ms. Albright. So that's done for me. But still...

If you are attending Mr. Pollan's discussion, please feel free to meet me at the shop (Senate and St. Clair--SE corner). There's plenty of free parking, or if you are on foot or biking it, I'm just a half block north of the Cultural Trail where it meets Senate! We can walk over together!
