Already got a 10k blog written for that one.

This one is special for me: another map which I annotate, and for the first-time ever some photos from me personally during the reporting. Got about 300 from the trip and I'll have to get either Esquire or Sean to make something happen online with them when the story comes out--canyoubelieveit--in something like three weeks!

Never had two so quick like that.

But . . . already have something proposed for Top 100 Ideas October issue (off-shoot from this piece that didn't make it in), an opinion essay, and possibly a write-up of somebody for the Best & Brightest.

If I got two out of three, I'd be incredibly lucky, but a fellow can dream.

As I said earlier, Warren did a beautiful job editing this one. With each reported piece, he's been required to generate less bridge stuff on his own as I get smarter in my reporting, but I remain immensely appreciative of how Mark's brought me along in this process. He is a natural teacher, and one of the best I've ever had (and I've had some world-class superstars).
