William Gibson
We seldom legislate new technologies into being. They emerge, and we plunge with them into whatever vortices of change they generate. We legislate after the fact, in a perpetual game of catch-up, as best we can, while our new technologies redefine us - as surely and perhaps as terribly as we've been redefined by broadcast television.

RE: High Court pusses out on pledge issue...
also it seems I dont have to file suit. dont know the details but heard on NPR today that several OTHER similar suits are expected to hit the supreme court this year. and in these they wont have the same option to skip out.
now that said i have absolutely ZERO faith that most of the supreme court understands the constitution and will rule correctly that any mention of monotheism, which is clearly religious, is clearly unconstitutional in ANY publicly funded institution (that I might add should INCLUDE A COURT, so help me god) and has nothing to do with "patriotism" that I Renquist (I think it was he) spouted off about today. When they do finally get the issue and have to make a real decision I would bet they still find some way to leave things as is just to avoid the uproar of idiots and again piss on the constitution.
