    Here are some excerpts since its from the Washington Post... "I sat on the curb and stroked the deer's head," Cynthia writes. "He responded by opening his eyes and putting his head in my hands. . . . I wished that everyone could feel what I felt at that moment." Which he managed to do, shortly after police officers arrived. They mercifully shot the animal to death and told the man he could have the corpse. The man did his butchering in full view of several children, all ages 10 to 12, according to Cynthia.

    "I was having lunch with one of my favorite clients last week and the conversation turned to the government's recent round of tax cuts. "I'm opposed to those tax cuts," the retired college instructor declared, "because they benefit the rich. The rich get much more money back than ordinary taxpayers like you and I and that's not fair." "But the rich pay more in the first place," I argued, "so it stands to reason that they'd get more money back." I could tell that my friend was unimpressed by this meager argument. Even college instructors are a prisoner of the...

    Fleeing Afghans gunned down By Gay Alcorn in Washington and Martin Perry of AFP The Taliban are slaughtering Afghans who try to flee the country, gunning them down in cold blood, refugees who have made it to Pakistan say. Of a dozen Afghans interviewed, all had tales of random killings, human rights abuses and persecution. Some told of mass murders. Ovr Mohd, 65, fled to the hills from Bamiyan to avoid the Taliban. When he returned he found his three sons shot dead. Mr Mohd said they were targeted because they were ethnic Hazaras, whose sympathies lie with the ...

    I believe that all of you have heard that lawmakers are starting to think of requiring National ID cards for people in the United States. Whats more, Larry Ellison of Oracle Corporation has announced that it would offer free software to this effort. I say, we boycott Oracle, and its customers. At least, send email to its customers to pressure Oracle off its anti-freedom stance.

    Okay, this is a vanity post. I was just watching Fox News and they were showing off the new movie "The Fast and the Furious". Its supposed to be about street racers. I got to thinking that these people are probably racing out on the streets because of the lack of a local and inexpensive racetrack near them. I know that there had been talk about putting in a dragstrip in/near Watsonville, near the Bay Area, SF. It keeps getting killed for one reason or another. What is stopping these? Overzealous neighbors? Local politicians? Seems that here is another property ...

    This article originally appeared in the May 25, 2001 issue of the MIRS newsletter in answer to the question: "Has the Michigan environment been damaged during the past 10 years of the administration of Gov. John Engler and can environmental protection be balanced with the need for economic growth?" These are issues, unfortunately, which are tainted all too frequently by junk science and partisan political agendas. Groups that claim to be friends of the environment are often friends of more government first and foremost, and seem determined never to let facts get in the way of their ideology. Partisan politicians, ...
