Although natural language programming might be more difficult and clumsy than using proper programming languages, there are certain types of application where critical portions should be written in a programming language indistinguishable from English (or some other language) prose, so that it is given Constitutional protection (if you live in one of those countries that has such a thing).
It is difficult to promote anything on the Internet by word of mouth, unless it has its own URL, as explained at Unsigned Artists: How to Promote Your Songs using RSS.
Both MagnaTune and Audio Lunchbox are deficient in this respect. You can make the world's greatest web site, with the greatest navigation features, but we are entering an age where content and navigation are being separated. The most important thing is not that users can navigate around your web-site -- it's that they can navigate around someone else's web-site (or RSS or whatever) to get to the desired destination on your web site.

The Three Levels of Conflict Resolution are direct action, politics and morality. The "heresy" concept is part of the fighting, but it does not neatly fit into any one level. The individual heresy is something that the originator is stating in order to gain political support, and ultimately to challenge the current view of what is moral. But the general notion of "heresy" supports direct action against the heretic: e.g. burn them at the stake if they don't shut up.

"Identity Theft" implies that your identity is some sort of thing that you let someone take away by not locking it up carefully enough or something. But if the credit card company sends you a bill for a credit card that they entered into with another person, then they have negligently identified you as being the person that they entered into the contract with. Did they even bother to check with you before they opened up a credit card with your address and phone details ? Did they write a letter to that address ? Did they ring you up on that phone number ?
The burden of proof needs a bit of shifting. Organisations entering into major contracts with individuals need to go to a little bit of effort to contact the individual that they think they have made a contract with before they are even allowed to pester you to pay the associated bills.
