This attitude illustrates the problem: people are disillusioned to the point of not caring anymore. But unless we do something about it -- write our elected officials, post Diebold's memos, or even just explain to others why lack of accountability is a *bad* thing -- we might as well all move to deserted islands in the pacific. That is, if we can find some to move to.
This is our country, or at least it was. We have to stand up for what rightfully belongs to us, or get really dirty and sweaty trying.
whoah! hold on! maybe i should have mentioned that this paper was totally ficticious, and written with at least a fair amount of tongue in cheek. i'm sorry you hated it so much.
i'm a graduate student at the university of california, in the school of information management and systems. the ban on segways was proposed back in august, and we wrote a paper on the future of its use. i have it up in pdf format -- go ahead and have a look -- if there's any demand whatsoever, i'll convert it to html.
enjoy.
