Not commenting so much as wanting to point you to this...
I know you're interested in science, especially biology, although I'm not sure if you're interested so much in this, but anyway...
I was on the MIT OpenCourseWare pages today and noticed this:
One of the things I miss most about no longer being near any big cultural centers is all the public talks I used to go along to. There are so many wonderful minds around who want more than anything to share their love of knowledge. [sigh]
Thank you for pointing to that! I wish I could have attended, it sounds fascinating! Unfortunately it's a little difficult to get into Boston. I should start looking to see if universities in Providence - like Brown - have any public lectures I'd like to attend. Especially since I'll be moving to Providence in the near-ish future.
I'm sorry you're no longer in an area with public talks! I didn't take advantage of them when I was at university. I only went to a few in my final year and that was it. I comforted myself by knowing that many of the talks were given by lecturers I was seeing and learning from on a weekly basis, though. (:
