		<outline text="Link-rot note. I point to the NY Times so frequently partially because they have been good at maintaining archives. Perhaps that's no longer true.

When I grew up in NY I used to spend winter weekend afternoons at the public library scrolling through the Times on microfilm. I don't recall paying any money for this. I cared, as a kid, what people of the day thought of the events that were happening around them. I watched WWII start. I learned about Jackie Robinson, The Army-McCarthy hearings and Fiorello LaGuardia. Now if links don't even last a year, what am I supposed to do? Oy." created="Thu, 04 Oct 2001 14:18:19 GMT"/>

Patents in standards are like terrorism. You can't give an inch. To answer Dori's question, flip it around. Let's create a table where software patents are off-topic. Let's do the legal work to get a court decision about their constitutionality. Patents are opposite the spirit of the Web, which is built on freely shared formats and protocols.

		<outline text="Capsule review. Last night's West Wing was worse than a CNN town meeting. What a load of crap. I cringed 18 times and then fell asleep. Looking forward to the season premiere next week. I wish they had run it instead. I'm fed up with all the depressed people hogging the airwaves. Let's move on, write some code, make some love, eat good food, we've still got a lot to do. Terrorism sucks. Racism sucks. Let's create beauty together. The West Wing at its best is very good.

		<outline text="FWIW, they probably wrote the script two weeks ago. In that context it makes sense. In today's context, running the fantasy, the season premiere, would have been much more satisfying. In that sense last night's WW was good art, it was an &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=anachronism&quot;&gt;anachronism&lt;/a&gt;, and provides some clue as to how fast things are moving now.
