caitriAl Gore's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech here.
Fuckin' A, Al.
And here is Doris Lessing's speech, which is ostensibly about the importance of education but really seems to be hand-wringing because poor people in Africa want to have books while spoiled little white Angles have books and want to play video games. And I feel like I should be touched but mostly I want to roll my eyes, because as usual the focus should not be on the medium but on whether either of these groups has the know-how to be sensible when they grow up?
