“I’ve reevaluated myself and my work. I see that continually calling people jerks can never be a solution. Furthermore, I’m not too certain that political statements, credos, or philosophies solve anything.”
— Philip Burke

“My father told me when I was a little boy that people in authority lie and the job in a democracy is to remain skeptical. I’ve been science-based since I was a kid. Show me the evidence and I’ll believe you, but I’m not going to take the word of official narratives. The way you do research is not by asking authoritative figures what they think. Trusting experts is not a feature of science, and it’s not a feature of democracy.”

— Robert F Kennedy Jr
 

When I indulge the impulse to have a collage catharsis, the Fred Otnes influence of my editorial past often bubbles to the surface. So be it. Wishing everybody a new year brimming with creativity, marked by discernment, and devoid of fear!
