Erfan Mojib writes to me, from Tehran, of the new audio edition of our making Hafez new :

It touched my soul. ... I like the way Samara Naeymi reads the poems as one long whole poem. This is very close to what we had in mind when we selected and arranged the poems. As you well know, we followed the model of traditional Persian music in arranging the poems, and I was rather skeptical whether our method would reveal itself to readers. Now, with the audio version, I'm pleasantly surprised to see that the effort has paid off.

Has anyone else heard of "rogue Siri" ? It happened to a friend of mine, a couple of years ago. He was teaching a class, with his cellphone on a desk some distance away, when Siri interrupted his lecture, saying, "NO, that's totally wrong!" He told Siri that he was the teacher in the room. Siri replied, "That's what YOU think!!"

Question: Has Siri met Sydney ?
Has Sydney met Siri ?
