My ideas on changing the law in pursuit of public interest, in particular: conflict resolution.
RULE: The purpose of this blog is to encourage discussion. I am totally aware that my opinions usually vacillate between the cynical and the idealistic, and this is my attempt, before I take the bar, to “come clean.” Thus I subject myself to you for debate. Don’t hold back.

Quotes from Francois Roux closing argument, incredibly moving and deeply philosophical, to come soon hopefully.
