Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

We're enjoying a bout of global warming in Chicago this morning; the snow pack has quite literally melted away. (I saw the phrase "quite literally melted away" refering to a figurative melting recently, and felt compelled to use it correctly. I'm not big on the figurative use of the word "literally". I'm bigger on referring to global warming as though it were a phenomenon of weather, rather than climate. Just try to stop us.)
