I was born and raised in Utah. I began university studies in Utah and finished at Stanford with a degree in Computer Science. Since graduating from school I have been working for various startups in the Bay Area. In 2006 I relocated to Utah, but have continued to work in the Bay Area.

Panela, for those who didn't google it, is a drink in Colombia, where I lived for two years.
Just a point of possible interest. In neighboring Ecuador, "panela" is
called "canela", but it's the same, nasty stuff.
Hmmm, what do they call cinnamon there? I imagine a pure cinnamon drink
would be pretty nasty ;)
Well, technically the drink is 'agua de panela' (panela water), while
'panela' alone being the block of unprocessed sugar-cane syrup. You break
a chunk of it, toss it in boiling water, and there you have 'aguapanela' as
it's typically called. Most people will put a lot of lemon in it for
flavor.
I noticed a script you wrote to convert HTML into a MochiDOM function. Do
you know of one that will convert HTML into a valid string parameter to
pass to an innerHTML function?
