I’m not in any way
a fan of George W Bush, but tonight’s speech on stem cell research was fascinating. Just as only Nixon could go to China (which is doubtful, in fact, but that’s the common wisdom), only a rightie like Bush could squeeze up the middle like he did. I venture that if Gore or Clinton had made the exact same speech either one would have been crucified by the right. I think W could get a pass on it, though – even though he very clearly left his adminstration open to the possibility of making much more radical moves in the future.

the new Netscape X 6.1 preview and you know what? It’s excellent. Fast, seems reasonably accurate so far, and it looks great. That makes two viable OS X browsers – or three, with Opera. Browsers that don’t support ECMAScript and CSS are just toys, not real web browsers. Sadly, that includes iCab, to date.
Fun! And good
