Sunday! This time for real.
* The federal government has declared the swine flu a public health emergency. Clearly the time has come to panic.
* Nate Silver has an interesting post analyzing some counterintuitive environmental polling showing Americans tend to believe ecological crises will harm others more than themselves.
* Isaac's experimenting with 3-D comics. I couldn't get it to work—but then again I could never see the 3-D image in those "Magic Eye" posters either.
* Another proposal to fix Chess: add a "slight win."
* Nobody does media criticism like Glenn Greenwald.
The very same pundits and establishment journalists who today are demanding that we forget all about it, not look back, not hold anyone accountable, are the very same people who -- like Broder -- played key roles in hiding, enabling and defending these crimes. In light of that, what is less surprising than the fact that, almost unanimously, these very same people oppose any efforts to examine what happened and impose accountability?* In the spirit of Dinosaur Comics, Topsy the Electrocuted Elephant. (Thanks, Denise!)
