I was reading this post, and I think it is a great idea. My week is going to be dominated by packing (going to Harvard-Yale this year) and grading, so I won't have much time to go searching for new blog topics.
So why don't my loyal readers leave me a question, any question, that they would like my take on and I will do as many of them as I can? Saves time, and it guarantees that you will read something that you may actually be interested in.
(P.S. It would be embarassing if no one asked any questions.)
A philosophy professor once told me that Harold Ramis' "Groundhog Day" was a very philosophical movie. Please explain why this is so. Also expand on other works of popular culture which might help the layperson with difficult concepts of philosophy.
