    MPAA Lobbies For Wall Street Reform

    Steve, please correct the title. The MPAA is not attempting to "reform" Wall Street. For more than a year now, they have been trying to implement derivative contracts that allow bankers to bet on movie revenue. They would get a slice of the cake on every bet that was made. They are paying...

    Recovery Act Gives $1B Boost to Health IT Funding

    More likely: People who actually work and have knowledge of the health care industry will welcome this news and people with no clue but jump at any chance to cry 'big government' will call it waste.

    Facebook More Than Doubles US Audience in 2009

    No it wasn't. Facebook has always been and will continue to be a collasal waste of time. It's just a dressed up myspace that only serves to drain productivity and degrade social skills. It's a distraction from productive things you could be doing and serves as the outward manifestation of...

    I guess it depends where you live, but FIOS has been excellent for me so far, 35/35 for $40 a month I would love to see a cable company do 35 duplex. :p

    Minimum Broadband Speed Set at 768 Kbps Down/200 Kbps Up

    Yeah seriously. It's just a given that urban areas have the infrastructure to provide its city dwellers with very fast internet speeds. I live in NYC and get 35/35 from verizon at only $40 a month and I don't even have a contract. If you want good speeds, don't live in the sticks. ;)

    Why do you think colleges are teaching about science? Maybe, because it is their job to teach us about science?;)

    You must be blind because other countries with government run health care spends less on health care than we do (by about 40%) and get far better results than our system.

    I don't see anything wrong with a single payer system for health care. Seeing as how a third of medical costs are of the administrative type, taking out the profit motive will save $350 billion a year at least if you take a look at current health care costs. Sounds good to me.

    Do Gadgets Make You Lonely?

    Last week at a Starbucks I saw four people gathered around a 13" macbook, twisting and turning their heads so that they could get a better view of the screen. Clearly, instead of actually have a conversation or pondering things, they were looking at movie trailers. I was there reading the NYT...
