>>We have underspent on America's future and overspent on protecting our past. <<

Very well said.

>>We are the most innovative nation on Earth and will continue to be so as long as our educational and health concerns start to be addressed and too much freedom is not lost to the encroachments of the right wing. <<

I hope they address the concerns before it is too late: that is before the baby boomers retiring in waves. And the time is running out. And I hope the "cowboy"<g> will not get the 2nd term, because that will only push back the date to address those domestic concerns.

just finished Hubbert's Peak -- he's pretty good on the "we're in deep sh&t" part, but a little terse on what we can do about it -- oops. <g>

He also lends more support to the idea that engineers can't write well -- but lotso nice explanations that engineers can fiddle with if they like. Probably won't get a very wide audience.
