				Last night, I went to see an event at the NYPL to celebrate the <em>New York Review of Books</em>' 45th birthday. It was a <a href="http://www.nypl.org/research/chss/pep/pepdesc.cfm?id=4696">panel discussion titled "What Happens Next?"</a> and featuring a distinguished group of six panelists that included scholar Andrew Delbanco, writer Darryl Pinckney, and Joan Didion, the only woman on stage.  The idea was for everybody to comment on the election and then speculate about what will happen in the future.  Yeah, everyone was smart, many of them widely-admired writers and thinkers, and it was certainly interesting. But thank goodness for Joan.				<a href="http://jezebel.com/5083302/joan-didion-is-kind-of-a-downer-about-the-election" title="Click here to read more about Joan Didion Is Kind Of A Downer About The Election">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
