"Alba, yeah, I see the pattern. What grates on me is how they misuse the equals sign. The first four lines make four false statements, but in a pattern that can be inferred. If one is willing to make one more false statement in the same pattern, then you are correct (yet wrong...) to say 3 = 6. I rebelled against making a false statement, and gave the literally correct statement of 3 = 3." - Brent Logan

Re: My Zimmerman Verdict Reaction - http://blogan.net/blog...
"A few quotes from the links I posted a little later in the day: A young man named Trayvon died. He didn’t need to die. That is both tragic and sad. (Source.) When left with the proposition that we will never know what "really" happened, the significance is that the prosecution then lacks evidence to prove its case. (Source.) And Winning a civil judgment over a penniless defendant is about as rewarding as having an award-winning blog. (Source.) Thought you'd really appreciate the last one. ;-)" - Brent Logan

Re: I Got a New Bike - http://blogan.net/blog...
"Gary, thanks! I love my Sage. :-) Bikes are a great alternative to a car if you're willing to get the clothing that some weather will require. After all, there's no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothes. Additionally, I think a commuter bike should have fenders, a rack, and I'm loving the kick stand. You'll also want to add lights. On to your questions: 1. I don't miss the extra gears. On my mountain bike, I only used the middle chain ring. That's all Sage has. I'd have to walk up steep hills, and the gearing doesn't really work well for over 20 mph. But I find I'm biking largely in the 13-15 mph range and she's perfect for that. Without the front derailleur, the single chain ring can have protective plates on each side. Maybe this keeps your leg cleaner. 2. It's hard to go by just bike weight specs. After all, I attach a pannier to my bike and that becomes part of her mass. And the mass doesn't matter too much on the flat. Sage feels faster than my mountain bike, but she might..." - Brent Logan
Re: Brewster Kahle on Government - http://blogan.net/blog...
"Unfortunately, there is a difference between "doing their jobs" and "thinking they're doing their jobs." At least, they are best intentioned. The more I learn about my own government representatives, the more I like them. Maybe others' representatives are good, too. There are some that I'm cynical about, but I would bet that could be improved by spending some time with them. I wonder..." - Brent Logan
