Brian Daley
Brian Daley is a freelance writer cursed with the ability to remember almost everything that he has witnessed during his
increasingly lengthy lifetime. Fortunately, a lot of what he has retained is actually fascinating, and through his blogging can share information and insights gathered during a lifetime of reading books, watching too much television, and asking his elders countless annoying questions. Although he would not consider himself an expert or a scholar in the multitude of categories that he write about, his work is always factual, informative, and hopefully entertaining. A collection of Brian's articles can be found at www.thedaleyplanet.net.
