I hate to leave comments under "anonymous" so I created an account. Originally this was going to be the only use I planned to make of it, but lately I've been actually making an entry once or twice a week.

Oh, I guess I ought to provide some actual information... I'm married, have a son, and sit at a computer terminal all night long. Anything else you want to know, just ask.

My politial and religious beliefs can probably be best summed up by the following quote. It's not mine, but it sure strikes a chord in me:

When I was a kid in the early 70s, America still felt like the greatest country in the world. It made me proud to grow up in a country where we were the best at science, technology, and democracy. We were putting people on the fucking moon, and we were even starting to clean up our environment. The only time religion was discussed was at Sunday mass. Now I feel as if I live in the most backward-assed, batshit-crazy banana republic in the Western world. How did we go from the pre-eminent scientific, technological, and rational civilization on earth, to a nation whose political discourse and civic life is held hostage by a bunch of barking-mad fundie loons and other assorted God-botherers?
