HARD NEWS 29/04/03 - Compulsory

Hi folks,

Two reasons you should check out today's Public Address postings. One is that they're quite good - the Rumsfeld story in Fortune needs to be read to be believed, and I'm quite pleased to have located a few Internet artefacts related to the original graphical web browser, Moaic, which was launched 10 years ago this month.

The other reason is that there are only two days left of April and I'd quite like to go past 30,000 visits for the month. So, y'know, tell your friends ...

Cheers,

RB

Neil Morrison is "sad" to see me "wasting time on conspiracy theories" - to wit, the suggestion that the highly symbolic toppling of Saddam's statute in Firdus Square had the whiff of stage-management. There are, he says, "two obvious questions about the supposed photos of the Chalabi supporter ...

Now playing in the Muse Lounge

Perhaps in keeping with the resolve of a post 9/11 America, the second series of ' 24 ' has a robust subtext on the legitimate use of torture to extract information from prisoners, senior members of government and skinny blonde women in times of national crisis...
