Radio Bump Reply Hazy, try again. Monday, September 24, 2001 Dave says, "The point behind that is that people are saying our strategy is stupid, and missing that our strategy might not be what you think it is. In other words, you might be the stupid one."
I've been thinking along exactly these same lines. I hear people making all sorts of statements about what we are doing, how it is wrong, how we should be doing this or that instead. I hate to say this, but I find that it's mostly people in the pacifist camp making these sort of statements. We haven't done anything visible yet, which I think is very telling. I give this administration, which I disagree with on almost every domestic issue, all the credit in the world in this situation. Are you mad because they haven't released their proof about who is involved/culpable in the act? Well, do you really have enough information about the investigation and our strategy to be mad? 11:47:17 AM discuss [] I read The Free Lunch by Spider Robinson on Saturday while waiting for the cable guy that never showed. A nice diversion from my current state of mind. 11:13:31 AM discuss []
Oracle boss urges national ID cards, offers free software Every time I hear this idea, I see people whose political stances I normally agree with immediately and vehemently disagreeing. Maybe I do not understand something about this issue, but it seems to me that we already have a somewhat national id system in our driver's licenses. Because these vary on a state to state basis, they are much more difficult to track on a national level. In many cases, including here in Georgia, fingerprint data is included in the existing ID. So what's the big deal here? I think this idea provides additional security, and would not necessarily cause any issues for law abiding citizens. Please educate me as to why this is a bad idea. 10:13:39 AM discuss []
Commentary: Another worm, more patches "Gartner recommends that businesses hit by both Code Red and Nimda immediately investigate alternatives to IIS, including moving Web applications to Web server software from other vendors such as iPlanet and Apache." 9:53:56 AM discuss []
Anguish for Vast Toll of Children Left Behind I've cried a couple of times since this whole awful situation came about, but this article really struck me where it counts. These kids will never be the same because of this, and there was nothing that they could do about it. Losing a parent is the single most life altering event that a child could possibly experience. It matters not whether they have adequate care from loving people, the kids will always be missing something. How uncompassionate are the people who would do such a thing, rob children of their parents? My anger does not fade, in fact it is enhanced with each day that goes by, with each heartbreaking story that I hear. I will not forget. 8:48:14 AM discuss []
