My dad said "or even make it the Friday before Labor Day. After all, he was killed while supporting garbage workers." I didn't know that.

My cheap-ass vegetarian cooking interterm class is 3:15-5:15, so i think i am going to skip on Thursday and Friday to attend some of the conference events.
Here’s what i want to attend. ( cut for everyone who doesn't care )
( and in preparation, an e-mail exchange with a Smith professor about Newton Arvin, et al, from a while ago )

"Scorched earth: Saddam guilty of genocide for destroying the Marsh Arabs' way of life, critics say" by Patrick Graham
Seriously, i’m consistently pro-life (vegetarian, pacifist, opposed to abortion and the death penalty), so i’m up for alternatives to war because really, increasing death and suffering is NOT something i want at all, but that’s just the problem... death and suffering is going on all over the place, all the time, and people, especially people with power, have a moral obligation to stop that. Things are complicated, i know this, but the more i learn about Iraq, the more i think Saddam has got to go and that the U.S. attacking is the best way for that to happen (and of course along with that comes the obligation to help the people rebuild and all that afterward). It is NOT helpful to just say “War is bad!” because, you know what, LOTS of things are bad, and many of them are worse than war (not to mention the fact that war itself has a whole range of how bad it can be).

Interesting article on cloning.

Though really, the title of the piece just begs for a huge "Duh!"
