Constitution MP3

Professor David Currie of the University of Chicago, a great scholar, passed away this week. This report comes in from the Volokh Conspiracy about a great resource provided by the school.

Via the University of Chicago Law Faculty blog, I learn that the Chicago website has posted an MP3 file recorded in 2006 of the late Professor David Currie reading the U.S. Constitution (link to the hosting page rather than the file). It's a big file, but a download is well worth it: Currie has a marvelous voice, and hearing the Constitution read aloud gives you a particularly keen sense of the structure and internal consistency of the document. Super cool.

I've downloaded it -- you should, too.
