Ted Koppel On The Dangers Of The Patriot Act: "Ted Koppel put together an amazing Nightline where he interviewed folks from the ACLU and the Justice Department, among others -- and was able to paint a frighteningly accurate picture of the Patriot Act and its new bastard brother, the Victory Act." [On Lisa Rein's Radar]

iPod: "These are all minor nits; the thing is well worth the money.  There is something magical about having every single piece of music in your collection available with the touch of a finger.  I expect the iPod to last me at least two years, or until the inevitable convergence occurs when I can get a single pocket-sized device which combines PPC, Phone, WiFi, 2Mpx Camera, and 30GB drive." [Better Living Through Software]
