The conclusion of a wintry Tale for Our Time: first published in 1899, this is Jack London's account of the awesome powers of The White Silence. Josh Passell writes: "To paraphrase the fellow you quote in the introduction, I'd rather have The White Silence than any New Yorker short story since Salinger. The snowshoeing passage alone is compelling reading. Thank you for choosing this tale and reading it so compellingly..."

Welcome to the final installment of our Steyn Club second-birthday Tale for Our Time - written in 1909 by E M Forster. Thank you so much for all your kind comments about this latest radio serialization. Andrew A from Alberta:
A cautionary tale of the dangers of cyberspace and the Information Age. The Machine serves humanity by facilitating transmission of ideas, but it depends on humans for them. It is humans who create ideas, test them, then discard or improve them based on human-scale judgements informed by feedback from reality. Cut out the human connection to reality, and the closed system runs itself down. This might become my favourite Tale for Our Time yet...

A Note to My Readers
|
|
|
As I mentioned on yesterday's Clubland Q&A, I have to take off for a few weeks to remote parts in order to crack the back of a project that's been on hold for fifteen months because Cary Katz and CRTV were suing me for $10 million. (They lost.) At any rate, the coming weeks will take me somewhat off the grid WiFi-wise, and that can't be helped because it's a very small window of opportunity. Katz and CRTV have re-sued me in multiple jurisdictions, this time for a combined $20 million.
Clubland Open Thread: Wednesday June 27th

While Mark's away, and by request of members, we're experimenting with an occasional "open thread" forum at SteynOnline. If you're a member of The Mark Steyn Club and there's something on your mind not covered by Mark's columns or audio-video presentations, feel free to raise it here. The whole world can read it, but Club membership is required to write it. So, if you've been toying with signing up, either for a full year or a see-how-it-goes experimental quarter, you're more than welcome to sign up and give it your best below. Please remember our usual comment strictures apply - except the one about going off-topic, as in this case the topics are your call. Otherwise, no profanity, no ad hominem attacks, no URL-fests, and don't go crazily ...

The Mark Steyn Club helps fund much of what we do here at SteynOnline and around the world. Don't worry, we're not paywalling off our daily commentary or other regular features. In fact, I view with great dismay the rise of the subscription-only paywall, and I've declined invitations to be part of such enterprises. It's a weird thing to be told that you need to be out there saving western civilization - but only for premium subscribers. Anybody in the ideas business wants their ideas out in the world, available to all and tested by all. So I'm not into paywalled echo chambers - which is why this site now provides more free content than at any time in its seventeen-year history. That's by way of explaining what The Mark Steyn Club isn't. ...
