I have a draft of Act One!

Okay, I may be one of the few people to be excited about jury duty, but today I am. Having jury duty gave me a break from my day job, and let me focus all of the normally-wasted-time spent waiting for my number to be called - and there was a lot of time spent waiting to be called - towards completing a first crack at Act One of The Physics of Joy. I've shot the first 40 pages off to Chris, and will post feedback when I get it.
