In Nevada, the open-pot initiative (aka marijuana initiative) didn't pass in yesterday's election. But prostitution is still legal in Las Vegas and elsewhere in Nevada. In France, exchanging sex for money is legal, too. We'll all wake up today to find new laws headed for the books and new faces headed to state capitols and to Washington. But in France, politicians are trying to pass laws that might be considered "hooker profiling". So while racial profiling is a hot topic in USA and elsewhere, the hookers of France have taken to the streets in protest. (from New York Times, free access but registration may be required)

AOTC (American Open Technology Consortion) "has researched the sponsors of eight bad Internet laws and compiled a list of their most prolific campaign contributors. These laws were written and sponsored by a tiny handful of lawmakers, backed by a tiny handful of wealthy financiers. These bad coders and their backers have done more damage to computing, the Internet and freedom than all the virus authors, spammers and crackers combined."

Doc discusses the issues surrounding North Santa Barbara, Gaviota Coast and Santa Ynez vincinity. I really find myself wanting to move and buy property here. Close enough to LA, but far enough away to experience open space. At least for now. Close enough to great wine.
