I'm not so sure: http://tinyurl.com/4p4bngd Sadly, I think what we'll be left with is less personal freedom. Remember that N.A.S.A joke: Need Another Seven Astronauts? I loved telling that joke when it was "fresh"--I had a thing for dirty jokes. =) The event was so horrific. I remember the Challenger explosion vividly. Anyways, with things like twitter, facebook, etc.... gah. Maybe there's more to that article than what I saw, and construed as a joke. A callus joke, but still. I don't like the idea of a police state. I *do* like the idea of politicians ditching the violent rhetoric though. Ah well. :Den -- Our affections as well as our bodies are in perpetual flux.
