Now that Vox has fixed whatever bug it has and I can write again, I can tell you about the following find on Google, which Janette mentioned on her blog. On the one hand, I am glad Google has been transparent about this and told us that it has ...

I'm not a Luddite, nor am I fond of ludditic kinds of extremism... I do embrace the wonders of new invention, technology, new medicine, our generation, right now. I think it is important to be in touch with where the world is heading and not drown...

Jane Doe's Suicide Post

2009-11-16T22:42:59Z

2009-10-29T23:14:50Z
