Trying to follow the rule of listening for at least a week before posting...so here's an #introduction

I grew up in East TN as a National Lab kid. Studied philosophy and language in college, briefly a short order cook in New Orleans. I fell into the open web after answering a Boston Globe classified ad in 1998 and am really interested in how data, science, governance, and computers intersect.

As an old man, my interests include knee pain, kid swim meets, and wondering where the remote is.
