Attention Thomas Friedman fans

Are you a fan of Thomas Friedman, NY Times columnist and author of The World is Flat and The Lexus and the Olive Tree? If you read here regularly, you know that I am. I've read his last 3 books and enjoyed them immensely. He has a knack for aggregating global economic and political information and relating it's relevance to your own community. I heard Friedman speak during a visit to EDS in Plano, TX last month, and found him to be very personable and engaging. So if you're interested, I noticed that he'll be appearing on Book TV the morning of December 24. Check here for the details--2005 National Book Festival: Thomas Friedman
