New Band Name: Human Nature and the Logical Fallacy

I’m in the midst of frantically cramming for my Odd Salon talk tonight on Logic, which means that I am struggling to put a few sentences together and busy reminding myself why I didn’t stick with philosophy during undergrad. Tonight I’m discussing Sherlock Holmes and his arch nemesis Moriarty. Research has led me to read a metric tonne of Sherlock Holmes fan literature. It’s remarkable the permutations that Sherlock the myth has taken and how it’s impacted popular culture, in particular the cult of logic and reason. The idea that there’s always an explanation, there’s always an answer. That having all the right pieces in a little row will forever lead to the truth, no matter which storm swirls or boulder blocks your path.
