I watched Blue’s Clues yesterday. Apparently throughout the show you find 3 clues, left by Blue, and at the end put them all together to form some sort of game that Blue wants to play with you. The clues yesterday were water, a hose, and a ladder.

I was stumped.

It ended up that Blue wanted to play firefighters with me, but damn– kids these days must be smart. I might have gotten it if they had added in a helmet. Or a person.

In a few years Blue will probably have these kids solving Kryptos.

According to Anti-Polygraph, Albuquerque FBI are saying they won’t use polygraph tests anymore.

AntiPolygraph.org has learned that FBI Special Agent Leroy Chan, a polygrapher assigned to the Bureau's Albuquerque Field Office, has recently notified his chain of command of his decision not to conduct any more polygraph examinations. His decision is based on serious concerns regarding the validity of polygraphy. It is to be hoped that Special Agent Chan will not be subjected to reprisal for his morally courageous choice, and that other FBI polygraph examiners who share his justified concerns will follow his example of bravery, fidelity, and integrity. SA Chan is not the first FBI polygrapher to disavow polygraphy. Before him, Supervisory Special Agent Dr. Drew C. Richardson, a scientific expert on polygraphs assigned to the Laboratory Division, expressed his misgivings both to FBI management and in sworn testimony before the United States Senate: http://antipolygraph.org/hearings/senate-judiciary-1997/richardson-state ment.shtml

It scares me when people like this can’t keep their sites up…

Phoenix Fest has set their dates for 2005: July 21st - 25th.

Mutant Fest just last night decided on August 5th - 15th, starting on a dark moon. They’re now location scouting.

In the more immediate future, LinuxFest 2005 is April 30th.

I didn’t take too many.

What you do today is itself the extent of that revolution, its limits and its triumph.
