I have decided to create a new category for postings. Although I do enjoy posting on mindless things, I thought it might be interesting to post links or write about something a little more meaningful.  I will likely continue this over time. 

Today’s article is from MSNBC on an issue of particular interest to me.  As you already know, I currently work with some agency (that I’d prefer not to mention)  as some sort of a research fellow. This article illustrates the severity of a problem we are currently dealing with. I say “we” as I get ready to leave in 3 weeks. how funny is that?? Perhaps I’ll be able to come back one day though in another capacity. Who knows?  I can still say “we” though because my future graduate school program and proposed research area is in this.  I can’t say enjoy the article, because it is sad. But do feel free to give your objective opinion on the situation and any other comments that you would like to leave.
