After Politics
Disero unexpectedly resigned from council on March 14, 2003. She subsequently created the firm Boomer Consulting, named after her dog. She also returned to City Hall in 2003 as business development officer for Light Heat Cool Ltd., a new-technology waste-disposal firm. Her longtime assistant Cesar Palacio won the Ward 17 council seat in the 2003 municipal election.
Disero has continued to support gasification techniques for disposing urban waste. Some have suggested that she may return to municipal politics in the future.

Famous quotes containing the word politics:
“Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting, but they have something missing in their natures; there is a hole, an empty place, and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.”
—Peggy Noonan (b. 1950)
“The will to change begins in the body not in the mind
My politics is in my body, accruing and expanding with every act of resistance and each of my failures.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
