Do you like the work you are doing? Was it your focus in law school? What drove you to pick debtor/creditor law? What other areas are you interested in? I ask as a fresh attorney who knows way too little about any area to do an ama, yet.

Hey, thanks for posting and generally doing really good work. Will you tell us a little about your early career? What did you do for the first five or so years out of law school?

Do you have a hard time shifting for age (or intelligence)? I want to plan a small treasure hunt for my nephews, but I'm worried they are too young to solve the puzzles and stay focused. How do you go about balancing the experience and what do you do if the target gets stumped?

Got any amusing stories about idiots not getting obvious clues?

Do you think that we can increase transparency and increase public confidence in governmental proceedings if we were to require that any lobbyist who wanted to use a scientific study to influence congress was required to submit that study to an agency (read intern at a desk) that would check that study for peer review status and either certify or not. Then based on that certification any congressman would know, to an increased degree, the reliability of that information. Mainly I am trying to eliminate a situation where, for example, big tobacco can purchase a result and use that result to influence legislation. ?
