The past dozen-or-so weeks have been an outstanding blur of awesome people, places, ideas, gatherings, conversations and flights. Summer came and went for much of North America, then San Francisco’s belated summer arrived and has now — with this weekend’s foggy chill — apparently departed too. For me, the change of seasons always represents a [...]
