| Introduction | Rudyard Kipling said that power without responsibility is the prerogative of harlots. Some cynics say that it is also the prerogative of the tenured museum curator. Am I am one of those cynics? Read the blog and decide for yourself. |
| Interests | No interests. A very famous paleontologist (who lives in New York, works on dinosaurs, and has been heavily featured on the Discovery Channel) once told me that it was "not cool" to be "interested" in things. Because I believe everything this guy tells me, I have had no interests since 2002. |
