this week i

received honorable mention in the federal decision against the aetna-humana merger.

suggested an update to the english package.

live near the school of the national guard.  monday morning, a dozen uniformed men walked down my street with someone shirtless and under arrest.  every thirty seconds, a soldier would whip the prisoner for no reason.  i walked closer and saw his bloodied backside, then followed the crowds and made eye contact with as many of the officers as i could manage, hoping the peer pressure of international observation would stall these beatings until they crossed onto their campus where i would no longer be permitted to follow.

do not understand this lifestyle.

quote hippocrates.

men think epilepsy divine, merely because they do not understand it.  we will one day understand what causes it, and then cease to call it divine.  and so it is with everything in the universe.
