Sunspots 202


Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:



Science:
NPR reports on the most recently discovered of Saturn's 60-odd moons -- this one is in one of the rings.

Politics:
Slate argues that claims that Democrats are going to bleed the rich into poverty are wildly exaggerated. Raising taxes a little on people making over $250,000 probably wouldn't be necessary if it were not for some wild spending, and lack of regulation, during the previous eight years.

Computing:
Don't expect Leonard Pitts to Twitter us. As he says:" . . .every new advance in communications from telegraphs to Twitter has been sold as a means of perfecting human relationships, allowing us to interact more easily, understand one another more readily. But it hasn't happened yet."

Christianity:
Henry Neufeld on what Old Testament passages we think apply today, and why. For example, did you know that Leviticus says that aliens living in the land should be well-treated? He's really writing about application of the Bible to our lives, and he continues here .

Twitter is colluding with Big Brother.

I guess. I've stayed away from Twitter, at least so far.

Thanks.
