the greatest misallocation of resources in the history of the world

By Hal Canary

America is in a special predicament due to a set of unfortunate choices we made as a society in the twentieth century. Perhaps the worst was to let our towns and cities rot away and to replace them with suburbia, which had the additional side effect of trashing a lot of the best farmland in America. Suburbia will come to be regarded as the greatest misallocation of resources in the history of the world. It has a tragic destiny. The psychology of previous investment suggests that we will defend our drive-in utopia long after it has become a terrible liability.

WARNING: boring linux-related post follows!

My new MD56002/FM560LK PCMCIA modem, combined with my new AC820 modem dongle cable works with my old p200 laptop under a recent Knoppix.

Friday I started my new second job delivering pizza on the west side. So far, I like the job as much as I liked my last delivery job Office Max in 1998). I need another part-time teaching job.
