Oh, and while he was way wrong about online retail and the internet replacing newspapers, he had a major point which still holds true about teaching and his statements on politics are probably debatable. I think his biggest failing in that article was not anticipating the coming advances in search engine technology.

Clifford Stoll? Dude, I know him. Well, sort of, I haven’t seen him in well over a decade. He could be a bit pedantic at times, but hey, what geek can’t?

It’s okay. I still get worked into a frothing frenzy over Oklahoma’s Adoption Invalidation Law (under which, same-sex couples with legally adopted children lost their parental status while within the state of Oklahoma–forcing doctors, police, etc to treat them, legally, as strangers rather than family), and that’s been, what? Two years since the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals put a bullet in it?

Good one. I was just about the vomit bile, before the lessons of the past few hours dawned on me and I checked before I ranted. This is what it must feel like to find out your partner has the clap, but you insisted on a condom.

Today’s headline:

Adopted child Seeks emancipation from Christian parents who don’t believe in Halloween, Santa, or the Easter Bunny.

“Send me back!” child pleads.

The date popped right out at me. I had about 1 1/2 seconds of rage, followed by “Oh wait…”

It sucked, but it sucked a year before I was born.

Nobody noticed the date? Really? Granted it’s in a light grey font for some reason, but still…

1971? Pfft. It was still constitutional to deny a person custody of kids because they remarried a black person in early 1984.

Yeah.. we had this same “no one checked the date” problem on atheistforums.com when someone posted it this past weekend.

Its still rage worthy, though. I hope that judge got Alzheimer’s.

Yeah, but how crazy is it that an article from 1970 is online now.

I was ready to get all ACLU on someone, but I did not notice the date until I check these comments. I feel like a dope.

I was just wondering if Chance the gardener had anything at all to do with any of this.
