A few years ago, this would have been news.
Sadly, now it's to the point that a lot of people will say "it's all lies" or "it's irrelevant", and many more will say "yeah, we knew that already".
Where has our goddamned sense of outrage gone?

Date: 4 October 2007 23:16 (UTC)The larger text is "Pandora's Last Gift". It's everywhere on the web (the reason why is below) and has now also been anthologized (in _User Friendly_, and maybe elsewhere, also).
It was originally a speech at a RadCon about 12 years ago; I was fortunate enough to be present. It got so heartfelt a standing ovation that the poor guy who spoke after him, an engineer who was presenting a plan to solve the air pollution problem, was practically ignored by comparison. (Everyone I talked to afterwards said that it was unfair that the second speech seemed like an anticlimax, because it really wasn't...it was just terrible timing.)
Anyway, glad you like it. :)
