“…schau mir in die Augen, und dann schau in mein Gesicht.”

Another quick technical announcement: In addition to our new Twitter feed, “Quid Plura?” now has a Facebook page that will duplicate everything you read here. If you’re a Facebook addict who wants all of your daily reads in one place, then each new “Quid Plura?” post can now be delivered to you like a jewel-encrusted goblet of chilled gazelle milk to the cruel hand of an Abbasid caliph. All you have to do is become a “fan” of the “Quid Plura?” page.

Regular posting will continue soon: We’ll go down the shore with King Arthur and embark upon new kitchen experiments with galangal, the Charlemagne of rhizomes. Stay tuned.
