Charlene is a lawyer--a keen litigator (on the good side). John is a former bookseller turned cabinetmaker.
About my libraryLotta books. It's too soon to comment, starting LibraryThing brings up many questions we need to think about...We don't rate books with the coolness and restraint we should probably use--we just slap the stars on with enthusiasm. All Judge Dee mysteries are fives...

Your bookcases look great! I found my way to your woodworking web site. Although I think I was more pleased to find that you are a member of the Krugman Truth Squad. :) NRO is my homepage and I always read Luskin's KTS articles. Good work!
Yes, I am in San Francisco. My husband and I are both lawyers, like your wife. What part of town are you in? We live in Cow Hollow.

On another note, I am also interested in Arts & Crafts (which I think is the tag I used, rather than Arts & Crafts Movement"). I am going to look through your library to find more books on the topic. My husband and I own and plan, someday, to redo (somewhere between restore and remodel) a 1904 Craftsman-ish four-square in Portland. I'd be interested in your recommendations for books on home restoration, since right now my A&C library mostly consists of decor books.

Nice blog, by the way. I was interested to see that you were at the SpaceShipOne launch. How neat to have a mother who would accompany you on such a trip! I own a bit of stock in SpaceDev (the outfit that, among other things, suplied the solid fuel rocket engine for SpaceShipOne). What is your opinion on whether or not I will make money?
