Topic: Miscellaneous 5:13 pm EST, Dec 14, 2003

I was in downtown San Francisco the other day. While I was standing
at a crosswalk waiting for the pedestrian light to change, I noticed
on the pavement, just beyond the curb, a stenciled likeness of GW
Bush, in yellow on the black pavement, above the text "One term
President".

Now, it seems to me that this is an extremely effective placement of
the message. When people step off of a curb, they naturally look down
and pay attention.

] The cryptographer David Chaum, through discussion with
] top cryptographers such as Ron Rivest, has designed a secure and
] verifiable voting system.

secure virtual receipt has applications far beyond voting systems.

This is rather like friendster, but I like the site design better. It's faster but that's probably because few people use it yet.

I believe it has possibilities.

Ok. This is the CNN home page on Sat Jul 12 18:57:11 PDT 2003. Click on the interactive 'nuclear club' link under the N. Korea headline. This is absolutely laughable.
