And like that... he is gone
So that's it. RIP Three Years of Hell, June 2, 2003 to August 25, 2006. After all these words, there are only a few things left to say.
Two sites, the Imbroglio and the Volokh Conspiracy, have given me a slightly premature sendoff, and their words are very kind. (The site has received its final Kerr Package.) In answer to Ambimb's question as to why the site is closing, the answer is simply that the project is done. I don't know what my next big task will be. I've got two articles in process (much more difficult now I don't have free Lexis access). There's a few chapters written of a novel, a thought made more exciting by three friends who have already written books. The more I look at law and technology, the more I think that an open-source, XML-based framework for writing judicial opinions would bring caselaw closer to the public (as well as weaken the WEXIS duopoly). Perhaps that's a project worth looking into. Whatever the case, I'm sure I'll have no problem coming up with other tasks to occupy my (soon to dwindle rapidly) free time. This story was always meant to have an ending, and after all these months, it is finally here.
Thank you to the professors and students at Columbia Law School who made this journey such a rich experience. The same goes to the bloggers across the 'sphere who've linked, commented and otherwise spread the word. (A special note should go to Martin, who started me on this path.) My family, although asked not to comment on the blog itself, never failed to give me encouragement (and fodder for quite a few posts) throughout my years here.
And finally, of course, thank you to all of you who've read this site over the last three years and a bit. Journeys are made better with travelling companions, and I couldn't have asked for a finer bunch.
Best regards,
A.R.
Ha. Looks like unfinished but I think every house in Greece looks unfinished. Great view though on the Santorini islands.
John´s last [type] ..Santorini
@Cam – Santorini was incredible! The views are spectacular and really enjoyed jetting around the island on a moped. Just kept pinching ourselves while we were there. Can it really be THAT beautiful? Only downfall was being there in high season. Too many tourists. Already plotting a return when it’s a bit more peaceful!
@Meg – Glad you enjoyed a glimpse of the mansion! It was quite impressive and couldn’t help checking it out. Next time hope to coincide our visit with the Jolie-Pitt clan.
You guys this is awesome!!!! Lol so great to see you on video, you look great. Love and miss you both. xx Meg
Very cool! How are you guys liking Santorini? We had such a great time there last Sept. It’s all about the tall Mythos beer, lamb souvlaki and killer views of the Med! Will you hit Mykonos as well? Cheers!
