The Atom Syntax mailing list seems ripe for another skirmish in the Holy War of technology that's being fought in the name of RDF.

Mobile Homes: White Trash or Luscious Cash?
by ZetaGecko | Vision
I used to think that mobile homes were universally trashy places that only people with no shame would deign to inhabit. Then, after a six month contracting stint during which I earned a lot of extra cash, I bought a mobile home and have lived in it for four of the last five years. I...

Welcome to the Mobius Life
by ZetaGecko | Vision
This entry first appeared in a blog I called "The Mobius Life":
Many things in life that look different are, like the sides of a mobius strip, actually the same. And sometimes things that look quite similar are in fact completely different. The Mobius Life explores things that aren't what they seem at first glance....

Listening to Talk of the Nation address the issue of religion in schools today, I wondered what those who oppose religion in schools would say if a church were established that taught evolution.

Today, he posted a proposal to the Atom wiki suggesting that we incorporate one more proposal (for a category element), clean up the draft, and submit it. I must admit, I was surprised to see someone make the suggestion, and even...

Two-party politics and the myth of the mainstream
by ZetaGecko | Politics
Two-party politics has its virtue--it leads to greater stability because the parties don't need to create and maintain coalitions in order to get enough power to get things done. However, it also has its problems.
When two parties dominate politics, choices are limited: you can choose one party or the other, or you can be...

Mainstream Stuttering
by ZetaGecko | Issues/Problems
"The thing is is..." I remember when I first started hearing the double-is. It grated on my ear. At first, I thought it was a local thing--provincial Utahns adopting each others' bad speech habits--but I've now heard at least two people on TV do it.
