My father always told me that intelligence never made anyone happy -- you need a good heart and good friends. What he never said because it was the water in the fishbowl, was that you have to work hard. I don't do this for the money, which makes it easy to take intelligent risks. I do it for a yolk to pull against, for the purpose, and the journey, and the company along the way. I want to do good, and doing well should follow. I am a polymath, a generalist, and an idea person -- but I'm good, historically, at bringing ideas to fruition. And then I want to find the next thing. Henry Jenkins' group at MIT is the only thing that's ever made my resume make sense. I argue to refine ideas, but I do listen, and I am malleable, teachable. I am often intense, but not as arrogant as they say I am.
