The cafe is crawling with aging hippies and UVA students. Many of them I suspect are law students since it's just down the hill from the law school. I'm counting about eight students with laptops within about 15 feet of me right now. I drew attention initially not because I had FR on the screen, but because I'm using a Mac iBook. Tonight, no one has taken notice.
Thank God when I go into Barnes and Nobles normally we don't have to put up with that. However, with the university so close to where you go you would have a higher liberal population. Good luck running them off with your conservative sites. Actually that is funny is it like showing the crusifix to vampires.
Ping for later reading.
How long has that been? I guess I wasn't paying attention.
"ADF is suing Penn State right now..."
I wasn't being sarcastic. This stuff is never enforced here. The supporters of such nonsense are always on the run. We have a pretty strong conservative student group here. I'll bet PSU is the fairest and most rational school in the Big 10.
Amazing (black woman queried about NR purchase)...

I hope so. I really hope so. But let's remember that
this will also be a "deterrent" to other conservatives.
Going back a few years, conservative librarians have felt
constrained to write and publish anonymously (several
articles in the Jewish Press come to mind)
Don't expect anything from the ALA, from what I hear.
(Not a librarian, myself.)
Local B&Ns (and IIRC, the Borders) megastores in NYC
stock books such as _ Unfit For Command _ the Regnery
book about the Clinton impeachment (Regnery being the
publisher), Kupelian, and Lynne's book about Terri Schiavo
and have put at least 1-2 of them out on the "featured"
tables. I wonder if that's not an effect of competition
at work (since there's more than one mega-store in NYC)
Any chance that this story will be picked up by the mainstream media, or at least a local paper? Some people won't buy that it is actually happening until they read it in a there.
You are not related to the Eccles of the famous BBC Radio Goon Show by any chance? That would surely get you a few looks at B&N.
Since the new president came on board. There was a big fit of couch and car burning after a football game, and so they banned couches on porches.
Free speech for me but not for thee

I'll do my best, but don't expect results this week.
