Introduction

Paul Moore: It must be nice to always believe you know better, to always think you're the smartest person in the room.

Jane Craig: No. It's awful.

So, here’s me: San Francisco resident, lawyer, wonk, Aquarius and all-around Giant Nerd. The inspiration for this blog comes from both the prodding of my closest friends who keep telling me that I should make my little research projects and opinions known in a milieu other than email and dinner parties (and by that I mean, they blocked me from their email and don’t invite me to parties anymore) and my own desire to cater to others who, like me, are interested in details. I’ll try not to bore you readers by keeping the information here grounded in facts (however mundane) with a generous helping of deep-fried opinion. Enjoy!
