Linguist and author Geoffrey Nunberg brightened the airwaves on Valentines Day with an NPR radio commentary about changes in personal communication. Amid way too much Feb. 14 schmaltz, what fun to hear this guy talk about the history of Valentines, including that many now arrive by telephone or e-mail – but some still arrive by old-fashioned snail mail. Listening to him made me want to read his new book Talking Right: How conservatives turned liberalism into a tax-raising, latte-drinking, sushi-eating, Volvo-driving, New York times-reading, body-piercing, Hollywood-loving, left-wing freak show.
