Among the treasures that Google served up was this article from 1974 describing Hamad&#8217;s work as a graduate student on a talking trash can named &#8220;Arthur.&#8221;

Having told me that they sometimes taught Heidegger&#8217;s essay, &#8220;The Question Concerning Technology,&#8221; to their students, I told them that Heidegger&#8217;s unrepentant [...]]]></description>
