Bushinations: An illusion died today (May 27 2003 23:58 GMT) - I came home this afternoon from running some errands and though I wasn't in a bad mood, something was weighing on my stomach. I thought the problem was that I tried the new Mocha Malt Frappuccino at Starbucks, not very Atkins but couldn't resist. That wasn't it though, and when I was perusing the afternoon linkage from garret, I realized the problem. We've been chatting a bit about recent actions by the Bush Administration (sorry, g doesn't provide easy permalinks to his discussion page) and that had me off a bit to start.Then I read today's SCOTUS Miranda ruling. |

You shouldn't be able to patent the idea of online auctions anymore than offline auctions. Can anyone in the government get this through their heads? |

Moving from Pine to PC-Pine (May 27 2003 23:56 GMT) - I hate email almost as much as I hate the web. I've found that I'm using my Windows 2000 laptop a lot these days, but I'm still doing my email on my 4.5-year-old FreeBSD machine (running a vintage 2.2.7... |

some good news for a change (May 27 2003 23:54 GMT) - Sunday's issue of The [San Jose] Mercury News included a positive piece about the more recent practice of many colleges and universities to reach out to prospective queer students, "signaling... that they have gay-friendly campuses." Stanford , for example, distributed a CD highlighting the university's gay and lesbian resources to everyone it admitted this year; this fall, it also will launch a database of gay-friendly staff and faculty. Berkeley offers a web site listing all students, staff, instructors and alumni who are openly queer. |

Don't Reinvent IE (May 27 2003 23:53 GMT) - Please don't reinvent IE The writer's subject seems to suggest he likes IE as it is, however the content of his article seems to suggest otherwise: I read all kinds of thoughts how and why IE should evolve but it really shouldn't. It should be put to rest, and the focus should be moved to an application which is already at our desktop: the CLR itself. It's a waste of energy when you are trying to re-invent the wheel that is already available: |
