Alito Hearings

It's truly a week for legal wonks! The Senate Judiciary Committee Hearings on the nomination of Samuel Alito to the U.S. Supreme Court have begun.

Today on "Talk of the City" we asked listeners to give us the questions THEY would ask if they were a member of that committee. What about you? What would you ask? What do you think of the quality of the discussion? How would you vote?

I just wanted to remark that I wrote a detailed article about the new seismic upgrades and buildings at the San Bernardino Valley College, which has an offshoot of the San Jacinto Fault underlying the entire campus. They just finished demolishing and rebuilding seven buildings last summer that incorporate a unique anti-earthquake component, called an unbonded brace frame. These components move with the earth, protecting the structure from buckling.

I thought it was similar to what was built at Cal State Northridge.

Just thought you'd be interested.
