Robert Lynch has a PhD in evolutionary anthropology, trained under Robert Trivers, and spent ten years as a Wall Street trader. He now substitute teaches in North Carolina for $160 a day. One afternoon he brought a 510-million-year-old trilobite he'd split out of Cambrian shale into a class of eighth graders.

Maarten Boudry (Maarten Boudry) isn't Jewish and had no personal ties to Israel. At first he filed 7 October away with every other jihadist attack. He was sure of one thing: no colleague would ever condone the slaughter of young people at a music festival. Within hours, he was proved wrong.
