Not sure if this is useful.

A mashup of Flickr feed and Twitter tweets.

I think one day our heads might explode from over stimulous, and we'll wonder what happened.
It would be nice to be able to control the tweet speed, and transparency..  The tweets cover the pictures fairly well.



Pose the Question Carefully.







A recent NBC/Wall Street Journal poll asked two very similar questions
with very different results:







(1)  Do you favor cutting programs such as social security, medicare, Medicaid, and farm subsidies to reduce the budget deficit?

The results: 23% favor; 66% oppose; 11% no opinion.

(2)  Do you favor cutting government entitlements to reduce the budget
deficit?

The results: 61% favor; 25% oppose, 14% no opinion.
