Most Egregious Omission (Dec 11 2003 20:30 GMT) - Most Egregious OmissionI don't care much about awards, so when I noticed I wasn't in the WizBang Blog lists AT ALL, not as a male blog, not as a female blog, nothing -- I figured Halley's Comment must simply defy all description and classification. She is simply in a class of her own.Until Kevin told me he was putting me with much chagrin and many apologies into the "Most Egregious Omission" category, which, of course, was even more amusing. So feel free to vote for me and help me lick my wounds of feeling forgotten. (But don't worry, I didn't really mind, especially when I heard people were so insecure about the whole thing as to CHEAT to win. |

No relief expected from spam (Dec 11 2003 20:30 GMT) - It's a no-brainer: People hate spam and politicians in the U.S. and Europe were shrewd enough this year to respond to their constituents' growing frustration over the increasing barrage of unwanted e-mail with antispam legislation.

yescomment : PIAZZA FONTANA. Una testimonianza (Dec 11 2003 20:28 GMT) - Il 12 Dicembre del 1969 avevo quindici anni, e verso le 4.30 del pomeriggio ero chinato sul mio motorino, in un garage di via Larga, tutto intento a limare i condotti del carburatore per farlo andare di più . Ad un certo punto ho sentito un tonfo sordo, forte, opaco, che ha scosso l aria e i vetri dappertutto. Nel giro di tre minuti c'era gente che correva e urlava da tutte le parti. Sono uscito nel buio (a Milano, d inverno, a quelll'ora è già notte) e mi sono unito a tutti quelli che confluivano come automi verso piazza Fontana, dalla parte opposta della strada. |
