My musings about human behavior and how we can design the world around us to better accommodate real human needs. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. I am proud of my city today. I am a huge sports fan.

My musings about human behavior and how we can design the world around us to better accommodate real human needs. Thursday, July 16, 2015. Sensitive Topics and Self-Delusion. I have a feeling that most of the people reading this are in favor of South Carolina’s decision to take down the Confederate Battle Flag from the State House.
