A portion of PBS revolves around the populist leanings of Moyer and crowd. This is the group that is quick to blame everybody but themselves for every wrong out there. Sadly, they are the major users of the tools that make for wrongs. (more…)

and too late schmart. If you browse Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations, this one won’t be up there with Churchill or the rest of the loquacious crowd. But its rightness is hard to deny. Our redundancy is obvious. We tend to make the same mistakes over and over. Throw in a bit of greed and welcome the Nigerian spammers. (more…)
