General Strike in Venezuela next Tuesday
The national workers union (CTV) has announced a general strike for next tuesday. I'm reminded of something Winston Churchill said: "This is not the end, it's not even the beginning of the end, but it is certainly the end of the beginning".
I think the Venezuelan government knows is in its lasts legs. I am afraid they may be stealing all the money, either for themselves or for the Colombian Guerrilla army (FARC).

From the stupid department
Music Companies Still Looking for Online Hit. LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Celine Dion's new album this week gave record giant Sony Music reason to both cheer and weep. The CD topped sales charts but also infuriated fans in Europe when the disc's copyright protection technology sent computers crashing. By Reuters. [New York Times: Technology]
Isn't making a protected CD in only one part of the world just a way to foster internet file sharing? I mean if you want to listen to the music in your computer and you are in an area where the CD is protected, just download the music... If you can only play your music through your computer, is it worth it to buy the protected CD?
I can obtained this CD unprotected (legally) and I am willing to exchange it for a protected one...
