Last night Seattlest was at the second of the UW's Allen Edwards Psychology Lectures, as promised. (The series will air later on UWTV and TVW.) Speaker Judith Auerbach, the evening's "prominent Ph.D." from amfAR, began with a disclaimer that the talk represented her personal views and not those of her employers, past or present, so we perked up at that.

As promised, Seattlest attended the PTSD lecture given at the UW last night. This was the first installment in this year's three Allen Edwards Psychology Lectures, and we're delighted to report that it's okay to come even if you aren't, you know, medically credentialed or what-have you. (Advance registration is "required," although they also "register" at the door. Seattlest initially had visions of having to fake a psych degree on our way in: goatee, pipe, slight Europish accent, but unfortunately, it wasn't called for.)

Yesterday Seattlest went to Hana on Broadway for lunch. We were meeting an old college friend there. "You know why I love getting lunch here?" he said, as he sat down. "Because I remember when I used to come here for lunch and get steamed rice with some teriyaki sauce on top. That was all I could afford. I only shelled out the $5 for teriyaki chicken if I felt rich." Ah, college days.
