What would Jesus drive?
Mark Morford of the SF Chronicle has a great column, Jesus Drives A Hybrid, on the WWJD movement.
These are the leaders, the administrations who trash His fine name every day, employing it to start wars and justify assassinations and explain away violent invasions, all with a nice dose of snickering our-God-is-better-than-your-God solipsism.
They do not want to hear, naturally, that the historical figure of Jesus was a serious pacifist, a healer, a sage, an activist, bucking an uptight system and leading repressed people to a new ways of thinking, away from Rome's draconian homeland security.
Actually, not to put too fine a point on it, but were Jesus alive today, most God-fearing Christians and U.S. attorney generals would, you know, hate Him.
The Wisconsin Digital Cadaver
I got to play with this, at the Los Angeles Internet2 member meeting. It's amazing, both because of its resolution, and because the data is travelling halfway across the country in real time as you work on the cadaver.
Speedier Internet2 could revolutionize world of medicine
