					<description><![CDATA[It is a good idea to occassionally experience history. This helps us understand ourselves, and our possible futures, better. Much of this is done through reading excellent texts. For example, I&#8217;m currently reading Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin. Goodwin&#8217;s objective is to contextualize Lincoln by looking at &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2017/01/24/palpable-history-dictators-voice-dictators-words/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Palpable History: Dictator&#8217;s Voice, Dictator&#8217;s Words</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Have you ever wondered how &#8220;Dick&#8221; became short for &#8220;Rick&#8221;? Probably not. But it turns out that the reason, if the following video is accurate, is interesting. I have two questions for the historical linguists in the room.
