By the Numbers

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
On today’s show: Mark Bittman discusses his latest cookbook. Then, Michael Lang, the man who gave us Woodstock 40 years ago, reminisces about the concert with Henry Diltz, the festival’s official photographer. Also, a sneak peak at the new exhibition of Afghan jewelry and art treasures at the Met. And, CNN's Christiane Amanpour on winning the hearts of minds of young people in the Muslim world. Plus, on Underreported we look at various proposals to mitigate the effects of global warming through geo-engineering.
