David Brower is a national hero. In Ralph Nader's address to the press core this morning (saw it on cspan...watch it here, it's great), he mentioned that he recently visited David Brower at his home in Berkeley. There he urged Ralph to keep up the fight to protect the environment.

He said: Let the trees breathe for us.

I was mentioned briefly in the New Yorker article about meg, jason, ev, Blogger, Pyra, and weblogs. neat!

fuck. bush won. (now, which country am I going to move to?) UPDATE: Dewey Defeats Truman.

Here are the Sonoma County, California presidential election results where I voted.

The people with blogs have a lot to say about Nader today.

this unfortunate measure in my home state of Nebraska has passed with a huge margin. It makes me very sad and ashamed. I think history will show that this state constitutional amendment is hateful and bigoted. There are many things I love about Nebraska, but its politics is not one of them. (I'm glad to see that Nader got 4% of the vote there. There must be some progressive closet liberals there...like I used to be.)

I'm still sick. But it won't stop me from voting for Ralph Nader. I'm not looking forward to the effort that will be required to actually go outside, but what else can I do? Go out and vote! It's your only obligation as a citizen of this country (beyond taxes and obeying laws), and it doesn't take very long. Plus, you have the satisfaction of saying things like: Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

more pictures from Web2000. No captions yet, I'm sick. ugh.

To make things more exciting today, Clinton and Gore are speaking right here! I hope I get a chance to leave the booth to check out the excitement.

Yesterday really picked up in the afternoon, so I didn't have time to update my site. I took a bunch of pictures, but was too exhausted at the end of the day to do anything with them. I'll try to catch up this weekend.

Just said hi to Ryan from laze.net. He mentioned that we need to make some tweaks to the Blogger interface for Opera.
