"The Modern Hunter-Gatherer" by Michael Pollan

[Hangar18]

A very long article published in the New York Times on March 26. It was written by a friend of mine's brother-in-law. Both are from Berkeley, California.

We have had some great conversations over the last seven years about everything, including hunting. She has told me that she better understands and respects hunting simply by knowing someone that hunts. I took that as a huge compliment, and for me it re-affirms how important open-mindedness is and how that can lead to one being a good ambassador for something.

Isn't he the one that wrote the article on the ins/outs of beef production?

Not sure about some of his other work, but I do know he wrote "The Botany of Desire" which has to be some of the more interesting/good writing that I've had to pleasure to read. I'm looking forward to reading this piece.
