"Activist: A person who believes so strongly that a problem needs to be remedied that he dedicates substantial time to... getting other people to fix the problem."
This notion of a voluntary universal national service that is unfortunately gaining traction and one which curries favor with at least one of the presidential candidates reminds us of a class one of our nephews took back in high school called "community volunteerism".... it was mandatory.

Now excuse us while we go out and threash wheat by hand and forge steel by the sheer might of our collectivist forearms.

P.S. Again, we apologize for the inability to link directly. We've talked to hotel management about the problems with these computers. Hotel management says we should be able to cut'n'paste, link, open multiple internet windows, etc. with these computers. Hotel management thinks there is definetely a problem with these computers. We would tend to agree.

I hope this info can make the rounds-- scares the crit out of me, you can bet your D20!
