WordPress Issue
I have one valued commenter whose comments are almost always being held up for moderation, even though I always approve them. I can’t see any reason for it in my blacklist. Does anyone have any ideas what the issue could be?
Your Socialism
It’s bad, and you should feel bad.
America’s Love Affair With Cars
It’s a sad end of an era. As noted there, for decades, a car was not just a symbol of, but an actualization of freedom for young people. I got my own license, and had my own car, when I turned sixteen, but new technologies seem to have overtaken that.

More Lab-Grown Meat
It looks like these people are trying harder to match the nutritional value of meat. I don’t understand what she means about chicken tasting “gamey,” though. Game tastes gamey, but not chicken.
FAA Space Licensing
The new NPRM has been released. People have until mid-June to comment.
