Lauren, Any news on the pitty? Did she find her way back home?

Let me know if nobody claims her. She looks like a wonderful dog.

Loved the tour we got of Etsy at an event there last month. The mix of culture, creativity, and analytics was infectious. Congrats to you all. Very cool and must be very satisfying for you to have nurtured their success.

What a beautiful reminiscence, Jonathan. And what a gift Laughlin gave to all of us readers of poetry. For me, so many of those black and white volumes -- and the poets published between their paperboard -- provided me with a remarkable "Ezu-cation." When it came time for my first book of poems, FALLOW FIELD, to be published -- alas, not by New Directions -- I insisted the publisher use a design that would evoke and pay homage to those ND books where I found such inspiration.

I love this tribute to what's going on in the 718. I've returned there part time after many years away and am delighted at the community renaissance happening there. Look forwarding more posts as you make your way around te borough.

BTW, Quisp was my favorite cereal growing up, so I will definitely have to try one of those Quispy treats you mention.

Re: The Green Skeptic™: Beacon Power and Other Gov't VC Bets: The Green Skeptic on FOX Business

Totally agree. I appreciate having your explanation in the comments section here. You can see why it wouldn't work on TV, though.
I believe I did explain a bit more about it than the wind-up toy and that flywheels are more efficient storage technologies than batteries, at least in terms of ramping up (or amping up) quickly.
I wanted to give the sense that this tech is not some far-out pipedream, but rather ubiquitous and real. Not much more you can do in a short segment.

Thank you for your comment. I try to provide an even-handed, moderate viewpoint to balance the hype and negative rhetoric. Appreciate your taking the time to let me know your thoughts. Thank you for reading.

Thanks, Christine, for your comments, suggestions, and for reading. I'll try to get more concrete in future posts -- and, yes, there are some ideas elsewhere in the blog.
Please help keep me accountable, though, and let me know how I'm doing on the solutions front.

Thanks, David. Yes, not all celebrities or pop culture is bad; it's just that our obsession with it takes up valuable creative mindspace.
I appreciate your comment -- and thanks for reading!
