[Who is this guy?]

My name is Jonathan David Leavitt. I was born in 1943 in Brooklyn, New York. I live near Berkeley, California, which is across the bay from San Francisco. I have been married and I have two adult daughters. I am self-employed in the health care industry. I am a secular Jew. I am very political but this blog is not about politics.
