And you may ask yourself
Am I right? ...am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
My god!...what have I done?

I'm leaving for Honolulu a few days before this goes live, so if I tried to publish any real content, it would already be horribly out of date. The Hawai'i thing is a work gig, so it's only 7/9ths as exciting as it sounds.

Instead of publishing out-of-date content, I thought I'd ask a bunch of questions instead, in an attempt to foster discussion. Don't feel the need to try to answer them all - feel free to focus on the few that you find most interesting.
