			<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.michaelfraase.com/index.php/hasten/passing_on_a_kidney_transplant/&quot;&gt;Michael Fraase&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;A transplant surgeon called from the University of Minnesota this morning to tell me they had a cadaver kidney for me (I've been on the transplant list for four-and-a-half years). 'I'll pass,' I said in a quiet but steady voice. 'Call the next person on the list.'&quot;</description>

			<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.npr.org/features/feature.php?wfId=3864859&amp;sourceCode=RSS&quot;&gt;NPR&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Ads attacking Sen John Kerry for lying about his Vietnam War record -- an accusation that is unproved -- appear to be eroding Kerry's standing in polls of independent voters and veterans.&quot;</description>

In theory yes people could do guids wrong, but in practice they work and are one of the most useful additions in 2.0. Guids help aggregators know for sure that they've seen an item, so they don't waste the user's time by showing it again. I wrote a &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/permalinksNewsAggregators&quot;&gt;howto&lt;/a&gt; for guids. &quot;A convenience that many users will appreciate, especially people who are in a hurry.&quot; </description>
