We must become the change we want to see in the world. -- Mohandas Gandhi.
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. -- Thomas Jefferson
I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success...

Slashdot | MPAA Sues Movie-Swappers
Looks like Hollywood is once again writing Trojan/Worms to seek-n-destroy your computer. I guess now that Bush got more people into the Senate, they will make it legal for the MPAA to corrupt your system. Great. Too bad we don't have a computer version of Human Rights, so that we could sue them for inhumanity (or whatever) against our computers. What right do they have to "seek and destroy". What, they completely hose your system (with all of your emails, accounts, bills, transaction histories, etc) and say "oops, it wasn't meant to do that"? Bet we would get in trouble if we wrote one that seek-n-destroyed them.
