New Location for Clan #lugradio Maps
The Clan #lugradio Maps site has been updated with new download locations for the maps, and a shell script to assist Linux users (and Windows users running Cygwin I suppose) in keeping their clan maps up-to-date.

The Powerpoint President
I really should have been sleeping, but I got sucked into watching US President Bush’s 2006 State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress. Bush’s manner of speech really irritates the hell out of me; he speaks in, short burst sentences, not always making it clear, where the sentence is going, to…
