Time to turn the tables on them:
From testimony by the nation’s archivist, we know the IRS destroyed e-mails, contrary to federal law. From IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, we know it did so even though they were evidence in another case.
If the IRS indeed has nothing to hide, the best way to prove it is to get that independent audit True the Vote is asking for.
Indeed. Why would they object.
Unless, of course, they have something to hide. Which looks more likely by the day.
It’s time to end it:
…if one has been teaching that high-fat diets can lead to heart attacks for 30 years but then finds that this may not be true, or that, indeed, more fat and less carbohydrate in the diet may be beneficial to one’s health and longevity, feelings of discomfort can result. Subconscious mechanisms may then keep enduring convictions firmly in place for extended periods of time, despite evidence to the contrary.
And it’s hard to confront the fact that you may have been responsible for the poor health and lives cut short of people you’ve been advising.
I talked to Buzz yesterday, and he’s promoting a huge social-media celebration of the event (the actual anniversary is a week from Sunday).

I think that Alex Brown is misunderstanding the politics of this. It’s not really a partisan issue, except to the degree that Republicans don’t like or trust Obama.
Good news, everyone! The New York Times has identified it. The agency isn’t getting enough money.
Dean Kamen has what looks like a pretty nifty way to get off the grid. As he says, it beats the hell out of solar panels.
This journalist is far too credulous about Skylon. But this is the funniest line in the piece:
Space travel is currently dominated by Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic and Elon Musk’s SpaceX…
I’ll have to tweet the guy.
