    I am happily on the reservation list for this- did it many moons
    ago. Should be a good time, and yes, questions are allowed, and
    usually, if I have a question, I get to ask it. Something to do
    with my face....

    Unfortunately, the last packed lecture, by E. O. Wilson, was not
    broadcast by the Harvard radio station, even though they help
    sponsor these things, and this one is not on their published
    schedule either.

    evolutionary thought.
