As I just posted in a comment - I hope that nobody gets the impression that in my recent entry, I was somehow lauding the work of David Brooks, and especially the Weekly Standard (for those of you who don't know, this is a highly conservative publication). His work is filled with contradictions - read "bobos" and you'll see it immediately. What I was commenting on was a couple of issues he raised that I see as applicable to technological culture building. As I said, I glimpse at his stuff every once and a while not because I agree with him most of the time, but rather, that I disagree with him most of the time. However, I find reading this stuff that exists outside of my leftist tendencies can actually be more challenging than reading, say, Al Franken, who I read with the words "He's so right" oozing out of my mouth after reading every sentence. After all, Rush Limbaugh is a big fat idiot.
