Watcher’s Council nominations for February 20, 2014
I really love being on the Watcher’s Council. What you don’t see is that, behind the scenes, we have such wonderful email exchanges. Although I’ve never met my fellow Council members, I can tell you that they are delightful, funny, thoughtful, and kind people. They’re also intelligent, but you already knew that.
