important broadcast


The National Academies Press (perhaps my favourite publisher in the world, even though I can rarely afford their books) have written to tell me and perhaps a million others about an important upcoming webcast:

This week, the National Academy of Sciences will hold the first meeting to review the FBI investigation of the 2001 anthrax mailings. You can tune in to the live webcast by visiting the National Academies website at these times:

Thursday, July 30, 10:45 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EST
Friday, July 31, 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EST


Here's hoping they've discovered CCTV footage of Darth Cheney and Scooter Libby -- the Bush Administration's very own answer to the Beagle Boys -- stuffing and mailing the packages . . .

Well, Cheney was always Beavis. I'm reminded of the deleted scene from the movie featuring Beavis using a restroom in the Capitol Building, realizing that he didn't have any toilet paper, and going out to steal the Constitution in order to wipe. (The scene was removed mostly because Paramount management thought it was too extreme.) Cheney was the same way (complete with "We the People" stuck to his shoe), but at least the movie Beavis wasn't guffawing about it.
