: @jpope Oh, I'm not there yet. Fourteen days, barring a new assignment before I head home.

: At home in California, they've now resorted to confiscating people's cars to try to force the low income to buy auto insurance. Just makes it worse.

: @douglasawh Oh, I'm sure every state has such a law, but they are widely flouted, especially among the lower-income, where it doesn't make sense to skip meals so that one can pay premium.

: @douglasawh Mandatory insurance is a failed product. It failed in the automotive field, and it will fail in the health care field.

: @douglasawh You mean the Insurance Company Welfare law? What happens when we finally get a decent Atty General and they're all in prison?

Wish we could get over the hump of trying to bend Twitter to our own will and start using services that we control (i.e. statusnet)

: Current #Kansas temperature: 28°F, partly cloudy with almost no wind.

: @douglasawh Stockpiles and storm shelters are best shared with an entire neighborhood or community, not one or two families.
about 2 days ago from brdcst.it -
: @douglasawh But the 'civilization breakdown' stockpilers have badly flawed thinking. No matter how many guns they have, someone else _will_ kill them and take their food if things get really bad.
about 2 days ago from brdcst.it -
: @douglasawh It actually makes lots of sense to stockpile. Not the way they seem to do it, but in general, it doesn't hurt to have a little reserve.

: @jpope They gave me half-price for the night. I moved to another hotel tonight.
about 2 days ago from brdcst.it -
: Expecting to be mostly offline next couple of days. New hotel's net is down.

: @teradyne I just use a dict client (dict or dico) instead of browsing to the site.

: @psquid It seems to me that Google is heading the same place Facebook is: becoming that snooping creep we all hate and fear. I once loved all things G. Now I'm planning to dump Android phone & tablet, along with my G accounts.
