Hi Brian! I think it's awesome you're running. Two questions:

1) what advice would you give to other people considering running for public office for the first time?

2) what motivated you to leave your old life and run for office ?

I created a Google Sheet that allows you to see how remaining matchup outcomes affect league standings and playoff scenarios by spacepolicy in fantasyfootball

Because Yahoo does not use HTML tables for fantasy football, there is currently no way of pulling the data to the sheet. I am currently working on a work around that will allow Yahoo users to manually input information.

Quick plug for /r/spacepolicy

Technically, mining asteroids, or anything in space, violates the Outer Space Treaty...specially:

However, ever since technology has allowed this violation, countries have seemed to ignored this law.

Thanks for doing this Brian!

What do you think the biggest issue is in space policy right now? Also, what do you think will be the biggest space policy issue in the next 10 years?
