• LKM’s stuff — “Look, you can apply what­ever weird laws you want to your­self. Per­son­ally, I have a law that states that I’m only allowed to take an even num­ber of steps each day, and that I must eat a bag of nuts each evening[2]. But I’m not going to come to your house and tell you how to walk and how many nuts to eat! Not every­one sub­scribes to your god, so you have no right to impose your own reli­gious laws on other peo­ple, just like you don’t want other reli­gious peo­ple to impose their laws on you.”
• Drilling Down — Chil­dren Ages 2 to 5 Watch More TV Than Ever — NYTimes.com — “If there is a prac­ti­cal limit to the amount of tele­vi­sion a child can watch, we have not yet dis­cov­ered it. Nielsen reported last week that chil­dren ages 2 to 5 spent nearly 25 hours a week watch­ing tele­vi­sion, the high­est fig­ure on record. They spent an addi­tional seven weekly hours watch­ing DVDs, play­ing video games, and watch­ing TiVo-style time-shifted television.”
