Here’s an interesting article about it at Wired, but as Paul Hsieh notes, the best thing about it is the hilarious correction at the end.

Fiction Imitates Life
A brief, but amusing review from Instapundit:
Set in an America that has become a corrupt state, run by an inbred political class drawn from just a few select universities and overseeing a populace of “cogs” who have no real legal protection against the state, while the civil government is sharply divided from the military, these science fiction books provide an excellent source of escapism from the unpleasant realities of today.
We laugh, so we don’t cry.
Smart Diplomacy
Hey, at least he’s got the French on board. So he passes the Global Test.
Climate Change
…is causing climate models to fail.
Is there anything it can’t do?
Mike Griffin
He’s supposedly speaking at dinner tonight here in Alamagordo, so if you hear about an explosion in southern New Mexico bigger than Trinity, it was probably a total mass/energy conversion with me.
No Rest For The Bringers Of It
In which Ace, and many others, including yours truly, righteously pile on @PiersMorgan on Twitter.
Amanda Marcotte’s Idiocy About Men And Babies
Hey, she deserves it, but really, this is just cruel.
Larva Breeders
Ummmmmm…no. Just no.
Though they might be useful in space.
The Slingatron
Frank J. has (literally) a killer app for it:
Will it work? I dunno. But, I’d like to see it throw something off the planet. Or someone.
Let’s start with Barack Obama. Next, Joe Biden. Then, Obama’s cabinet. Follow that up with the Democrats in Congress, and then the people that voted for them.
I’m thinking once we do that, we’ll have worked out all the bugs, and the Republicans will get the idea that we don’t mind tossing folks off the planet. Maybe they’ll straighten up and act right.
I wouldn’t bet on it. We’d probably have to demonstrate it on a few of them, too.
