The Greenpeace Blog has lots of interesting stuff, and also a few design bugs. I did a post to their comments area, and it still says zero comments. Gilla asks for people to e-mail suggestions to her (him?) but where the e-mail link invokes my old AOL archives (I am now using Eudora for my e-mail).
I can't figure out how to Radio subscribe to [http://weblog.greenpeace.org/ powered by Moveable Type] QUOTE
a comprehensive list of safer ways to avoid invasions of indoor pests.
"Spiders:
Under ideal conditions, do not kill spiders because they help to control pests."
Every web developer should read this book, since more and more people with disabilites access websites and they simply cannot be left out.

Lots more good stuff in their archives.
I saw on C-Span not so long ago that
- 100% of the US nuclear power plants were tested for terrorist threats.
- 50% of them failed the test for NORMAL terrorist attacks.
- NONE of them passed any test for protection against cyber attacks.
- The problem is that control systems, like Air Traffic Control, Water Treatment, etc. were built as stand alone units, with zero consideration for any security other than physical security. Now corporate and government managers are linking those instruments to their computer networks because they want to know what's going on, but many networks are brain brain dead on security, because after all, the information in the networks are not that important to protect, but that is not the case for some of these control systems.
- This management philosophy gave us the Challenger disaster.
- I fear we are overdue for another disaster.
