    10 minutes

    So lady Camille watches ten minutes of "An Inconvenient Truth" and finds that sufficient to dismiss Gore as a con man? Does Paglia take the same approach to scholarly research I wonder? Does she start rolling her eyes 10 pages into a book or 10 lines into an article and start snorting and rolling her eyes? How are we supposed to take this woman seriously on any topic when she confesses to such intellectual shallowness?
