It is a sad fact that it has been so long since this last happened that I actually noticed. I don't read enough any more, I blame Reddit and not myself :). Assuming CP is like FB, I know you are all dying to find out what it was: heteroclitic[^] Heard on the wireless during "In our time", totally unnecessary/pretentious use but there it is.
“Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities - that's training or instruction - but is rather making visible what is hidden as a seed”

That was a very interesting show today; not that I understood more that 17.4% of it.
Reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol

I only listened to about 17.4% of it, on the way to work. I should get the podcast, when it's good it's really good.

Curiously, this wasn't the definition she meant. This week's subject was "Levi Strauss" (the anthropologist not the jeans-maker). He went of to Sao Paulo to teach "Marxism, Geology and Antropology"(IIRC - the first two were in the list), the speaker went on to say "this looks heteroclitic, but really..." and made some tenuous connection that the all represented stratigrqphied things: Class system in Marxism, hierarchy in anthropology and, well actual stratigraphy for geology. He must have studied baking too, because cakes can come in layers.
