Well, had I read Eschaton today, I would have known that he was all up on top of Patriot Act Redux, so while I thought I had a scoop, I was wrong. I bow in the general direction of Philadelphia (which I should be doing anyway since it's my hometown).

And this terror alert=orange thing? I've been mocking it all evening. Code Orange sounds really funny over Rolling Rock. I probably shouldn't mock matters of national security, but they could have picked a more, alert, color, then orange. Like magenta, or something. Maybe a neon color. Unless it's hydrogen bomb-orange, then I can see where they're coming from.

The outrage from Patriot Act Redux is spreading and rightly so. Libertarians...start your engines.
