Well, Lawrence Lessig is an idiot.

Don't get me wrong - on his copyleft stuff, he's *plenty* smart enough.
Anyone who trades winters in Southern California for the slush of Boston
can't be all that bright, though.

I have about a dozen cousin that live in and around Boston. What with the
Red Sox, the Patriots, and even the Celtics (when did they start not being
doormats??) - they're insufferable.

While I adore the city and the people who live there, I'm too
old/feeble/much of a weenie to take the weather.

Subtropically yours,
