Shift Calls it Quits

MCS writes "Shift Magazine announced that it is closing down after 10 years. Biggest reason is that within this 10 year period they only turned profit on one issue. I remember at one point that they even had their own TV show -- the magazine was different then it competitors (Wired) as it focused more on the impact of technology and the social generation of those who lived in it. This can be seen in such issues as 'The Simpson Generation' and 'Seven Days without Tech'. Many of these articles are available online at their website Shift.com "

    Would it be possible to fuck with the electronic gear on one of the planes patrolling the

    no-fly zone so Saddam can shoot it down? A dead American pilot would be just the thing to

    get the country to support war.

    The United States is a Represenative Republic, a type of Democracy. Just because whinny foreigners (and sniveling spineless appeasing domestic liberals) do not like what the US is doing does not suddenly make it into a fascist state. There were protests HERE as well you know. What kind of a fascist state allows citizens to speak out against it again...??
