It might not mean much to you, but it means a lot to me.

Today, 24 October, is United Nations Day. As sci-fi fans, we should take note of this important step towards a unified world government & celebrate all the good that the UN has accomplished over the past 55 years.

And for our friendly neighborhood paranoids and extreme right-wingers, it's Global Satanic Conspiracy Day.

BOOGA-BOOGA!

Odd, that... something we as Trek fans consider a good idea, we as regular people might not...

"[Smith] ran on an agenda that was revolutionary for his time -- a 45 cent minimum wage, limiting the workweek to six days, building a bridge to the 1930's -- and I want to say it's quite a tribute to Al Smith that Governor Bush has adopted the same agenda." - Al Gore

"At least they're doing something" & "What have you ever done for world peace" being the operative words here.

I helped someone with heavy shopping onto the train.

That person might have then gotten home quicker.

They might then have seen their husband in bed with another man.

She might have then killed both of them where they, er, lay.

Their dead bodies might have been used for organ transplants, and saved the life if a little boy in a wheelchair, who coughs in a sweet but painful manner.

So, I think, I've done my bit.
