"Haha! Nice... :-)
I'm not sure I could pronounce Acamptopappus sphaerocephalus, and besides, isn't it the wrong color?
If I shortened it to Campy, some might get confused. This bike is Shimano all the way.
Maybe I should just call her #D8E0CE. ;-)

"As a practical matter, Facebook already pays us for the information we entrust to them: they have to provide a good, enjoyable service. If they don't, we will quit updating our information and quit visiting their site.
But I see where you're going with this: if Facebook was under contractual obligation to treat our information as confidential (haha!), then the government couldn't make the third-party holder, non-confidential argument to get access to our information without a court order. Interesting idea, though I don't think I agree with your implication that this confidentiality agreement would need to be supported by monetary compensation from Facebook to its users. There is other valuable consideration that could support the agreement, such as Facebook promising to store our information and make it available to those whom we friend."

"Those of us with our own websites are part of the mess, too. Everytime we pull in a service from elsewhere, be it Disqus, Google Analytics, Google Fonts, or (the worst) social media sharing buttons, we enable other companies to gather information on our visitors. It is this information that the NSA is sucking down."
