Timothy found a profile of Carl Malamud up at The American Prospect, characterizing it thus: "Carl Malamud — underrated work shedding sunshine on the sort of things that 'sunshine laws' may make legally accessible, but that often are not practically accessible.

    1. Slashdot is 97% {L|l}ibertarian which is a shallow façade over conservatism.
    2. Conservatism in modern American politics means "anti-Liberal at all costs!!"
