        Is this truth, or false rumor spread by critics?
        \_ Does it make any difference?
           \_ I guess since there probably won't be solid evidence on either

        Appeals court upholds Jefferson charges
        Dear "Why aren't they going after Jefferson?!?!?"-guy: they are.
        And now the man gets due process. If, like Stevens, he's convicted by
        a jury of his peers, calls for his resignation will be heartily
        supported.

10/22   Poor thing. The moral of the story here is, don't confess to anything:

5/10    In Linux, is there a safe way to resize a mounted LVM
        ext3 partition?  I know you can do it with reiserfs.
        None of my partitions are in reiserfs.  I was thinking of
        converting to reiserfs, but then I don't want to wake up
        one morning and read how Linus has decreed no convicted
        murderers can touch his git repository now.

        \_ His defense seems to center around "my wife went to russia".  Can't
           he hire someone in Russia to find her and take some pictures of
           her at lunch or something?

12/18   Can anyone explain why so many Republicans keep claiming that tax
        cuts raise government revenue, even when they know it is not true?
        http://www.csua.org/u/ka9 (WashPo)
        \_ Because in a high-tax environment, it's true?  Tax RATES aren't the
           same as tax REVENUE.
                \- yes, "everybody" acknowledges this may have been true
