Blog Break

This blog is going to go silent for the summer, as I turn my attention to completing the 2nd edition of The Honest Broker.

I'll keep up my blogging at The Least Thing and my periodic column at The Breakthrough Institute. You can also find me on Twitter @RogerPielkeJr.

Have a nice summer and tune back in here in the fall!
