I have nothing to say, really, except that I can't believe I missed an Erik Spiekermann Lecture at the BPL. I'd checked his blog a bunch of times in the last three months, and actually been to the BPL about a week before this, and somehow stayed oblivious of it.
I don't think I did anything that night either. Depressing.
Edit: Apparently this is a lecture that happens annually, and it was mentioned right here on Typophile. I have no excuse.
