This is funny. I just signed up for Twitter yesterday. Today I discovered that there is a FreeRepublic Twitter feed, and began “following” it. I installed a Twitter app in my Firefox browser, got it configured and running, and it started flashing “tweets” in the corner of my browser. And that is how I saw this story on Free Republic - via a tweet from Twitter. Oh, the irony!!
: )
How I ran into the story is a lot more pedestrian, I must admit!
