One of the truly Great thinkers of the 20th Century died today at home while
working at his desk writing. He will be missed by both left and right.

Rest In Peace, Sir William.

Yet at the resurrection we shall see A fair edition, and of matchless worth,
Free from erratas, new in heaven set forth.

Q. Does Usenet help stamp out ignorance?
A. That depends on whether by `stamp out' you mean `eliminate'
or `reproduce rapidly in great quantity.'

me a liberal.

I agree with him on quite a few things. The locals (Alabama) call me a
liberal because I'm pro choice. That one thing is all they need to
classify me as liberal.
