I send pieces I write to everyone, including those on my free list. That means about 5,000 readers are getting something on the house four or five days a week. I’m asking you to step up and support our work.

Please take a moment right now to subscribe to the Editorial Board. (Click here!) To those already subscribed, I say thank you! thank you! thank you! We can’t do any of this without your continued encouragement and support. –JS

PS: This picture was taken on West Rock, a giant piece of trap rock pushing out of the earth in New Haven. We have two in fact. West Rock and East Rock. That’s Hades down in the corner. I hope you like it!
