I'm a freelance writer and blogger based in Brooklyn, NY. My background is mostly in politics. I've worked on the editorial boards of the New York Sun and New York Post. In 2006, I wrote a book, "The Elephant in the Room: Evangelicals, Libertarians, and the Battle to Control the Republican Party" (Wiley). I've also done my share of freelancing, for places like the Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times, Reason, and RealClearPolitics.
These days, I'm interested in humanity's ever-expanding understanding of its own irrationality. Hence, this blog.

Fascinating, but I wonder how much the neural culture is contributing vs. how much the electronics are doing – it would be fairy easy, although not very useful, to stick a bunch of neurones into a robot acting as little more than wires conveying signals from one place to another, while all the “thinking” is done by the computer… I guess time will tell!

I have a bit of a school girl crush on him. Particularly when he says, “One day, when our brains are connected together electrically, I won’t need to say things like that.”
