A little Cog Sci, a little Media Critique, a little Architecture, now if I could only find more.

September 24th, 2003 Microsoft Risk to U.S. Security What a great headline. Unfortunately I find the article lacking. It feels like a biased report. I see conclusions, but no evidence, no thought process. Shoot, I even agree with the title, but this just doesn't cut it. Just another sensationalist piece of reporting. I wish, that we'd see a return to news, to science, to thought. To facts and real life. But maybe I'm just an almost middle age engineer, and no one would look or listen to anything that wasn't wrapped in blinking lights, flesh, or political demagoguery.

September 26th, 2003 As a long time fan of bathroom design, perhaps because I'm infamous for spending so much time in there, I loved finding the $120,000 shower.

Although the site is ugly, and not as easy to use as it was in the past, they still have a great list of manufactures, suppliers, and dealers.
