Hank: Good morning John I am currently standing outside of the old library at Trinity College Dublin where I was recently giving a talk. A regular library is over there [pointing in front of him] but THAT'S [pointing behind him] the old library, the one with the very long room and all the very old books INCLUDING the second most important book in all of Dublin, The Book of Kells, which was transcribed as several gospels of the Bible. Illustrated and illuminated by unknown artists who created one of the MASTERWORKS of humanity. Its jeweled cover was ripped off in a viking raid, it was tossed into a bog where it was for 3 months before it was recovered and SOMEHOW it has survived all of these years and you can go and see it... if you're ever in Dublin.

But of course number one I also recently went to see a new book called Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green. They have pigeons here that we don't have here. This is these fat ones with the ring -- they're more skittish than normal pigeons.

Oh well. I was going to show it to you but it looks like this [on screen is a picture of a Dublin pigeon]. That's the one.

They're fat, I love them. Anyway congratulations. Thank you for taking me and everyone else on this journey with you as we better understand humanity and - and what we can be and what we can do and what we will accept and what we should not accept.

It's available now wherever books are sold and if you're watching this video, you've probably already made up your mind about whether you're going to buy it. I got my copy and I managed to get one that wasn't signed because it was in Dublin, I guess? You didn't sign the Irish ones?

I was told a story about this guy's statue. I don't know, I guess his last name was "Lecky" and he was a president of the college and he didn't think that women should be admitted to Trinity College Dublin and now when women graduate they take their picture with him. And he died the day the first woman was admitted to the college so hahahahaha.

John, I'll see you on Tuesday.
