VOTE

It's that time of year again (or if you are in California, where we are voting more often than it rains here, it is another Tuesday, so it must be time to vote). I have been too busy with work to post any good resources or commentary, but I will at least say this: VOTE. You may be suffering from voter-fatigue, or you may be feeling powerless, or you may just be lazy, but you still need to go vote. For the people who don’t care much: we at least need to let them know we are watching so they don't do anything too crazy, and the easiest way to do that is by voting. For the people who are a little more hopeful or engaged: there are a bunch of important issues on the table this time & we might actually be able to make a difference if we get out there. It can't be government "by the people" unless "the people" act. We may each only be 1 in 300,000,000 now, but our actions add up (and with low voter turnout, each of us will count for a lot more than 1 in 300,000,000 anyway).

See you at the polls.
