While in Vermont, I discovered Vermont Commons. It is a web site and a newspaper and the home of libertarians and secessionists in Vermont. In case you didn't know, there is a quite active movement for secession in Vermont. It is quite in character with the kind of independent orneriness that has always been present in Vermont. Anyhow, I've been writing for their blog and now I'm writing an article to submit to their newspaper.

I also found this stunning picture of a Lyman-alpha blog as my daily screen wallpaper. To find out what it is, read here.
