[vox] Some recent posts from LUGOD's Facebook group & page

[Bill Kendrick]

A while back I suggested it might be nice to cross-post some of the
more interesting posts to LUGOD's Facebook page[1] & group[2] over here
on our 'vox' mailing list (and vice-versa).

Here are a few recent links, in case anyone wants to either (a) discuss it
further here on 'vox', and/or (b) hop onto Facebook and join the
conversation there.
