I wrote a talk tonight. It's basically an essay, but I can't publish it as one because it's about how to blow up a cartel of corrupt incumbents, and I don't want to provoke an immune response.

It's interesting how much less work it is to write a talk than an essay though. I wrote this thing in about an hour and a half. Admittedly because I had to; I have to give it tomorrow. But if it were an actual essay that would be followed by days of rewriting.
