I am brand spanking new to this - though I have lurked off and on since the very beginning...I doubt I will have much to contribute, but I might have something that SA would be interested in. I just cut and pasted the topic in my subject line. Is that the way this whole thing works if one wants to respond to a particular post? Well, I'll try it like this until someone corrects me...
Was just thinking about Chomsky and Anarchism the other day. I did a little search and found a treasure trove of Chomsky posts (though I'm sure some on this list would not characterize them the same way). The most interesting was a discussion he was invited to this year in Oslo. Here is the brief description and a link:
Noam Chomsky visited Motmakt (Counterpower) September 7th, 2011 at Litteraturhuset in Oslo, Norway. Adrien Wilkins speaks with Chomsky about libertarian socialism and libertarian organization. The name of the event was Noam Chomsky: Beyond State Socialism.

While not a primer, it could be used as a good jumping off point. I learned a couple of things and somehow it was good to see cute, privileged, anarchists ask relatively smart, sincere questions - while remaining conscious of just how privileged they are...Just that they still exist is a small miracle at this point...
Aloha,
