Another link!

Except this time, the link to my blog was from one of my favorite authors! Woohoo! I'll quote myself, then make you actually click the link to get the response:

Tom - just a quick question, maybe it's worthy of a blog post. I figure that now is the best time to ask, as you've just gotten back from your trip. The question is: how do you reconcile all the information that gets thrown at you constantly? I think many of your readers are probably into their own pet theories about how to Shrink the Gap and build a better planet, but there are so many nuanced subjects relating to these topics that it's difficult not to get caught up in them. I guess info might stick to your ribs more because you're out actively talking to flags and we're passively behind computers, but I read lots of articles too - just wondering if you have any good tips or tricks for unwinding your brain and sorting out info. I appreciate your use of the blog as a "dumping ground"! Thanks

Of course, what's really hilarious is the lack of any sort of political / intellectual content on my blog in the last couple of weeks, as I've been sorta busy. Instead, any new readers get a list of celebrity foods and my complaining about snow.

Speaking of which, what was the final verdict on John Cusack-of-potatoes? Yea or Nay?
