The Free Expression Project has an excellent article about the state of copyright as it exists in the U.S. right now. It does fall firmly on the side of those opposing the extension of copyright, but that doesn’t particularly bother me. This information is quite useful.

A couple of lengthy articles worth reading
This article about the stages of human moralistic development as correlated through the Old Testament is especially interesting when compared to this article about the progression and complexification(?) of childrearing as it relates to peoples’ spiritual and moral understanding…
Very interesting stuff.

a gazillion alchemickal monkeys typing away and singing out songs of incantation
“teabags teabags! where have you gone? my eyeballs are getting dry!”
Renewable energy for everybody (or in the Developing World at least)
This article about providing support for the Developing World’s energy needs seems absolutely spot on.
Where to find new energy sources equals THE question of the 21st Cengtury, with its burgeoning “Third World” population. It should make all the capitalist monkeys happy, anyway. With no electricity, how can the Developing World even think about purchasing any neato electro-gadgets?
What a clever bunch of folks…
This article about the city of Largo, Florida’s IT department is a groovy read. What clever chaps those fellows are. More people should use the tools that suit their needs.
Marx in a teacup
This article about Marxism at the Policy Review is a fascinating examination of the historical progression of Marxist ideas. Poor Marx. Who reads him anymore? But people sure do cite him a lot. He’s sort of like Nietsche that way, I suspect. Is Marx the Kevin Bacon of political theory?
I’ve just found a whole mess of groovy photo/film sites….
