PA Senate Race in the New Yorker

The Nov. 14th issue of the New Yorker has a lengthy article focusing on the Santorum / Casey race. I guess since we're the 6th borough now we should get used to this kind of exposure.

Check also the article on torture, which quotes Dr. Cyril Wecht, coroner of Allegheny County an dformer president of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, as saying "Mind you, I'm not a critic of the Iraqi war. But I don't think we should reduce ourselves to the insurgent's barbaric levels."

If that's not enough to whet your interest, there is an article on medical malpractice and a profile of Steve Buscemi.
