For the few of you who don't subscribe to Governing Magazine, you might like to know I was featured in this month's issue. I know, it sounds like a dry trade journal, but among us folks who work in government, it's bigger than Rolling Stone.

Besides, it's not all that dry. It's one of the few media outlets where public servants like me can let our guard down a little bit and speak the truth. Because, really, it's a magazine for folks who want government to work better. And that'll never happen if the people in power sugar-coat everything.

So, as you might imagine, I was pretty candid in the interview. Some people might be afraid of such straight shooting. But I'm not. I think it's what we need in this city.
