David is an occasional blogger, software engineer, Nintendo fanboy, liberal, news magazine addict, voracious TiVo user, and bibliophile. He was born in St. Louis, grew up in southern Indiana, and returned to St. Louis to attend Washington University. He hasn't managed to escape yet. He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer. He doesn't blog about work because he's heard too many stories about that causing workplace troubles. There's more on the about page. |

The two best commentaries that I've read about the Columbia disaster are both by Gregg Easterbrook, senior editor of New Republic, a contributing editor of The Atlantic Monthly, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution, and a football columnist for espn.com. The first of the two articles was written before any of the shuttles launched, in 1981. (The article is quite long; there's an excerpt here.) The other article appeared over the weekend in Time magazine. I found both very interesting and worth reading in their entirety.
