Polis is in a state of suspended animation while I hammer out a book proposal. Will return in a week or so. In the meantime, peruse some of my photo essays (no more than six slides each, very painless) or read some of my favorite Polis posts, both are linked at right. Cheers.
P.S. At least a month ago, I started posting here on Polis about how Mayor Bloomberg needs to take over plans at Ground Zero, and it's looking like he's laying the groundwork to do just that.
