Fernando points out this gem.
If it happens (Hatch getting his way), I propose that it be associated with the Republican party (perhaps their mascot should be the spider). I wonder if it would last through the next election. On the other hand this sort of tactic probably appeals to the mentality of Bush and Ashcroft.

During the Leonid meteor storm in last November the Hubble Space Telescope was pointed away from the stream to protect the main mirror from small strikes. It turned out the Helix Nebula in Aquarius was in the opposite direction, so observation time was granted to make some high resolution images. Since the Helix is so close ( about 650 light years), it is huge (about half the diameter of the moon), so several images were stitched together to make this amazing view (very large 8MB jpg).
An interesting note is the Helix is really a short cylinder (only a trillion miles long) that happens to be pointed towards Earth ...

Great chips - probably really bad for you, but probably no more than the chips you may be eating now.
The Sweet Brown Rice and Black Bean Tortilla chips are probably the best chips I've had.

I've mentioned the magic from Tamale Molly and it seems reasonable to recommend them again.
They are worth the trip to Santa Fe, but you can get delivery (for a price) and some enlightened markets carry them.
