Bill Van Pelt clicks the “print” button on the outdated computer in his office. As his curriculum vitae starts to print, he begins to tell me about the roots of his mistrust in technology. “I wasn’t always a technophobe,” he says. A loud clunking begins to resonate from the computer desk. The printer stops spitting […]

An hour or two had passed as they sat and listened to the tearful deposition of the mother and father who lost their daughter and granddaughter. Both made their last efforts to reassure the judge of the cruelty and evil that was bestowed upon their family from the man sitting only footsteps away. There, strapped […]
