It’s only ten bucks a year.
Both Maia’s lawyer and Stein said they had strong cases against the other, but both sides also said they had no foreseeable plans to file legal action against the other.

How many times does the Islamic Republic have to (a) seize sovereign territory (the US embassy in Teheran); (b) order mob hits on foreign nationals (Salman Rushdie and his publishers); (c) perpetrate acts of state terrorism against citizens of countries with which it has no grievance whatsoever (the Buenos Aires community center bombing)?

…there’s more. Sunday’s Atlanta Journal-Constitution tells us about another website, this one run by Andrew Schlafly, the son of Phyllis Schlafly. Conservapedia pushes the creationism theme with revelations that dinosaurs and humans roamed the Earth at the same time. You’ll also learn that atheism has led to a large increase in bestiality. But once again you’ll learn that not only is the Earth standing still, but it’s actually flat … and sitting still in space while everything revolves around it.
