1st Anniversary

One year ago today this site launched to little fanfare. While a few things have changed since then, that little fanfare has remained constant. Over the past year a lot of things have happened in the world, and time and mood permitting, we have attempted to discuss a few of them. More often than not, they really didn’t warrant discussion. So, what was happening on January 31, 2013 that was so important that this little chunk of the interweb was birthed?  Here are a few of them:
