Such a sad day. If this is the work of the **AA, you can bet that all this is going to accomplish is to motivate a new means that is more difficult track, similar to how Napster's shutdown led to the mainstream rise of Kazaa and several other p2p apps.
I plan on buying that SuprNova.org shirt I've had my eye on for a little while today
Being only a few years removed from high school, I can tell you that the robotics would probably go over well. There is an annual Robotic Egg Hunt here at UMass Lowell that is pretty cool to watch. For anyone who has done the simplest bit of coding you get the sense that what you are watching took _a lot_ of time and effort and is quite impressive to see in action.
The same logic can be applied to the Bush Administration's methods of convincing a majority of the American public that Sadaam Hussein was involved in 9/11. They never actually came out and _said_ it, but they used methods to make people think that there was, so much that many people today
still believe it. This is the same thing, just on the other side of the road.
