Still pictures from today's drive -- cows; and more!  A movie of Vermont cows, doing what cows do everywhere. Just checked in with Steve Gillmor. He's heading out to the AlwaysOn conference in Palo Alto. Say hi to all my west coast friends. Don't take any wooden nickels. And don't let any mosquitos bite your butt!  Meanwhile in Seattle, Chris Pirillo is one of the lucky few who gets to test out Boeing's new in-flight wifi service. Smart idea to let bloggers try it out. You think they might get some publicity that way? Phil Torrone's pictures on the Boeing flight.  
An example of how the EFF was discussing this issue with bloggers can be heard in this IT Conversations podcast, where Cory Doctorow lectures Robert Scoble (and that's being kind), basically says "tough shit" to every concern Scobe raises. That's just not acceptable. Yeah let's stand up for our digital rights and tell the EFF to try again.   NY Times: "Should the St Louis circuit attorney demonstrate that Larry Griffin was wrongly convicted, it would be the first proven execution of an innocent person."  4PM Eastern: Arrived safely in Burlington.  David Berlnd, a reporter, really knows his stuff and takes the time to put together accurate stories. But he's taken some comments here and on Scoble's blog and blown them up and put them back together, incorrectly. No one ever said it's okay to lie, David. Check out my statement of integrity for Scripting News. I suggest revisiting this after a bit of time. Blogs work, for a reason, and maybe you should try to understand before condemning our methods. No need to burn bridges that were so carefully built. Okay?  Paolo: "Apparently Bloglines lost all my subscriptions."  Boston Globe: "President Bush vowed yesterday to fire anyone in his administration who is found to have ''committed a crime' involving the disclosure of a former covert CIA agent's name, seemingly redefining the grounds for dismissal the White House had pledged when the case erupted in 2003."  Just a guess that "committed a crime" is different from leaking the identity of a CIA agent, in time of war, in order to discredit a fomer official who exposed the lies that were the pretense for the war.
