I’ve been slow to warm to twitter, and I’m not sure I’ve yet thawed, but reading William Gibson’s stream led me to this collection of typewriter ribbon tins from Uppercase Magazine.

Is that enough links for one sentence?

    Eugene,All revolutions start by gettnig rid of a repressive regime. But, anti-Mubarak does not necessarily mean pro-democracy (or pro-Sharia). What comes next will be determined by the dynamics and dialectics of the particular historic moment and the actors involved. The only thing that has been established is that people power is alive and well in Egypt. This phase is similar to the Russian February revolution, Iran in January 1979, Poland in the early ‘80 s, and the recent colored’ revolutions. In Ukraine, for example, the orange revolution may have been financed and supported from the west, but it was the people in Maidan that forced new elections. Whether these represented the majority opinion in Ukraine was irrelevant, because it was the people in the street who forced the issue (Lenin’s rule #3).Finally, the dismal failure of Yuschenko to live up to the hype does not diminish the exercise of people power that got him to the presidency. Similarly, the excesses of the USSR does not discredit 1917. And, whatever comes next in Egypt does not diminish the accomplishments of the demonstrators. The pre-conditions Lenin noted were present in Egypt, and the people responded.

  6. There are lots of people who would like to buy raw milk. Have you considered cow share schemes and whether they would be economically viable?
