6/9     How do you go about watching a more obscure Olympic sport like judo or
        archery?  Is there some sattelite station that broadcasts everything?
        \_ A lot of the more obscure stuff doesn't even get on film.  They
           might send 1 film crew as punishment... or they might not.
           \_ They all get covered by some country though.  Korea loves
              archery.  (They win every year).  I assume Japan likes Judo.
              (Although I've seen that on American TV too.)  I know you
              could probably watch the Korean coverege of the archery
              contest online. -jrleek
              \_ Excellent! That's the kind of info I was looking for.  So,
                 is foreign sports coverage something that I whould be able
                 to watch on someone's sattelite TV or what?

11/9    I just noticed that the English Wikipedia page for Gangnam Style is
        four times as long as the Korean page.
        \_ It probably needs more explanation here.  But maybe Korean is 4x
           as dense as English anyway?

12/5    Romney is right after all -- our military does need more horses and
        bayonets!  http://www.csua.org/u/y3j  Romney for 2012!
        \_ I'd never considered Romney's campaign as an ad for Revolution,
           but I guess that makes as much sense anything else.

        \_ War is fought for the glory of generals and the economics of the
           war machine.  Looking for "justifications" for it is like looking
           for sense in the necronomicon.  Just accept it and move on.

7/22    What's the quick rule to determine if a Korean name is male or
        female? I'd hate to address Mr/Ms incorrectly. For example, is
        Ji Hoon a male or female name? What about He Joon? Does "joon"
        have any gender connotation?
        \_ That's like asking a non-English speaker about difference
           between John and Jane.  There's no quick rule that can be
