William Safire condemns anti-war arguments outright - blatantly nailing his colours to the mast. He lists 12 reasons of the 'yes-butters', and then calls it the "dirty dozen of doubt". He is truly convinced of the righteousness of the US endeavour in Iraq, or the "great enterprise" as he calls it.
Truly staggering in its lack of logical or rational argument.

A story on the trials and tribulations of building the Airbus A380. This thing is just going to be huge. I honestly can't wait to see it finished, or to fly on it. Unfortunately my esteemed uncle, an engineer for Qantas, is not so keen on Airbus. His motto is "Boeing, or I'm not going".

New Scientist is reporting that scientists have found that electricity is produced when aluminium bullets are fired into a block of ice. This raises the chances of finding life on Europa, s eletrical shocks of this kind could cause complex molecules to form. An electrifying discovery? :p

Karlin has put her weekly Irish Times article on her blog today. She writes a stirring piece about Irish goverment plans to retain records of citizens' telecommunication records for up to three years. This is more stringent than any other EU country - one has to ask if the goverment thinks Ireland has suddenly become a hotbed of terrorist or criminal activity?
No, I don't think so either.
