Imagine the internet was a city, now imagine that city about 2,300 years ago. There once existed a city for the sole purpose of gathering all of the knowledge in the known world, that attracted the great minds for hundreds of years, where discoveries where made about the stars and planets. That place was the City of Alexandria (as in founded by Alexander the Great himself), who's library was so wondrous that it became one of the original 7 wonders of the world. Join in as we talk about this melting pot of ideas and discuss what we think we lost along with the library. Pens and papers at the ready.
