Today, after a hellish week of overturned cars, fallen trees, losses of power (both political and electrical), and huge piles of snow, Manhattan is deceptively quiet, almost spring-like. But David Swindle—long may he reign!–has made my day. He is the editor over at NewsReal Blog (NRB), an offshoot of Frontpage Magazine.
