Che diaries

Bolivia releases Che Guevara's final diaries:
On Monday, Bolivia released two frayed notebooks, a logbook and several photographs that had been sealed inside a vault since 1986.

'Several transcripts of the diary have been published … but this is the first time the public will be able to look at the handwritten journals,' the country's vice-minister of culture, Pablo Groux, told Reuters.

Bolivia has a plan to publish the diaries, which chronicle Guevara's attempt to spread revolution in Bolivia.

To Science

To Science is an Edgar Allen Poe sonnet that takes the position that modern science undermines spiritual beliefs and so should be rejected by the poet. Here it is set to music by Alex Colwell.
