Not Housebroken

This comes from the Electronic Frontier Foundation:

In 2004, thousands of EFF activists helped Rep. Rush Holt’s Voter Confidence and Increased Accessibility Act (VCIAA, HB 550) garner immense support before the session ended. The bill contains several critically important election reforms, including the requirement of a paper audit trail for all electronic voting machines, random audits, and public availability of all code used in elections. HB 550 was recently reintroduced, and it already has over 100 bipartisan cosponsors.

The momentum is on our side, and it’s more important than ever to ask your representative to support this bill – many counties across the country are choosing voting equipment now. Tell Congress to stand up for election reform!

Hello world. Duh.

Okay, this is my very first blog. In fact, it’s my very first dynamic content on a server I’ve been running for years.

But if you’ve following this particular server — hello, homeland security folks — you know I have a rather eclectic collection of interests in politics, foreign affairs, religion, science fiction, and lifestyles which I view from a left-libertarian and Taoist perspective.

You’re welcome to post your comments. Posting pictures doesn’t work yet. I don’t know why, and frankly, that’s kind of disappointing. It’s not doing times the way I’d like, and in some cases it’s just plain doing them wrong. But I’ve got a bug report in.

So we’ll see how this goes. And if it goes well, I may set up blogs under some of my domains. Have fun!
