As 2020 staggers to a close, it is time to review the year’s eleven most viewed essays and podcasts here at Fortress of the Mind.  The misery of the year’s events was in some way mitigated by its productivity in writing.  I list them below, in descending order.  Now would be a good opportunity to catch up on any that you may have missed, or to visit a favorite once again.  Here is the list:
