Preparing for our civic duty

Thomas and I usually forget to read the ballot measures until the night before (or the morning of) the election. This year, we were determined to understand what was going on before we got to the polls. So... three days before the election we gathered some friends to go over the ballot. Here, Andy, Jess and Brad contemplate what Steve has to say, while Nate checks out his manicure. Here, Thomas tries to persuade the group that building an International Peace Center on Alcatraz really does make sense for the city of San Francisco. Here's where I got bored of listening to the smart people talk about the future of our city, state and country, and took a picture of what's occupying most of my thoughts lately.
