From Huffington Post: My Comcast Cares Day Preview

I posted on HuffPost for the first time this week.

I was delighted to see that the folks at TED appreciate McCall as much as I do -- here's a McCall video where he presents his concepts of "retrofuturism" and "techno-archaeology."

Let's Celebrate "Record Store Day" While We Still Can... They're a vanishing breed. Fortunately, for the second year running, over 700 of them coast-to-coast will be celebrating the joys of CDs and, yes, vinyl. I'll drop in on Hideaway Records in my Chestnut Hill neighborhood on April 18 -- visit the website to find the last of the independent disk sellers in your area.
