a little shout out to lisa and laura (and nathan, who was also part of this conversation, if i recall). i checked out rod dreher's _crunchy cons_ at the library and have been thoroughly enjoying it. it would have been a champion bookclub book - and still could be, i suppose - because i think everybody in the book club probably qualifies as a crunchy con to one degree or another. there sure would be a lot of fodder for discussion. i'm still in the early chapters but lots of thoughts are percolating. he published it in 2006 before the oil crisis, economic downturn and the presidential campaign. wonder how all those events would figure into his ideas?
