I saw a commercial on the tv last night featuring the guy who started Wikipedia. He was talking about access to knowledge being a fundamental right and every person should have a computer with the internet or something along those lines.
According to Wikipedia, "access to knowledge should be linked to fundamental principles of justice, freedom, and economic development".
I thought public libraries gave people access to knowledge???
Funny how the "green" crowd keeps pushing computers/laptops/internet "for the children", then howl at the impact to the environment over a google search.
Never expect a liberal to act logically.
I know. Stupid idea.
