Information overload.

All I want to say is that I hope that the conflict is resolved rapidly and with a minimum of pain and effort. It's difficult for me to look at this from an assortment of scales. I don't want to see children die in a war. I also think that *someone* hitting Iraq (and Libya, and Korea) is long overdue. Not because of oil, but because more people are being hurt over a long period of time that will be harmed in a much shorter span of war. I don't like the idea of putting folks on a sliding scale economy of human life, but that's the way it has to be, unfortunately. What are the other options left? None to my mind, and believe me, I've been trying to come up with something better than a boycott. I will continue to only write stuff about Iraq in my own, private entries. I'll leave something laying in public view if I think it's of some value, and not just another rant on the pile.

Instead, I'll share fun links.

Ever wonder why Steve left Blues Clues? I like the interview. He seems like quite an engaging and entertaining guy.

Aww, a tiny Bluetooth-controlled robot.

Al Gore on Apple's board of directors? Apparently he's a senior advisor to Google, too.

I am glad you said something about it. I respect your brain and I wondered what you thought. Thanks.

thanks for your counter input... I rarely post publicly any overly sensitive issues, just because it seems like there are already 1000 opinions out there, and maybe none of them (my own included) have any good answers to problems. It's usually easy enough to identify trouble when it's happening, but figuring out what sort of compound to use when putting out an issue's fire is more difficult.
