This is my son. He's a remarkable and beautiful human being who, though slowed by disability, contributes a lot more to the world than the spoiled brat Elon Musk, an entitled eugenicist. Still waiting for Elon to lead an expedition to the sun.

My latest cover story for Super Lawyers profiles plaintiff's attorney Adam Malone, "the new king of torts." Years ago I profiled his late, great father Tommy ("the king of torts"). These are remarkable men. Read the story here: superlawyers.com/articles/georg…
