The SD abortion bill isn't about politics, it is about money. See, South Dakota is a a continually poor state, with little industry. That is why they tend to vote Democrat in congress - it brings home the money. Last election cycle, millions of dollars were spent in the contested race between Daschle and Thune. Most of this money came from out of state. Now, out of state groups on both sides are going to South Dakota to "influence" the antiabortion legislation. Now, if they just spend money.. South Dakota has discovered a new industry. Politics.

But a lazy one. I'd been putting off working on my thesis data, but had an ultimatum from the adviser (of what I'm not sure, but I finished getting the Bouger Gravity.. except for a couple of points). But I was braindead last night. After a great meal at La Parilla (Portabello and Red Pepper Chimchongas and this great rice milk drink I can't remember the name of), I went to bed, early. And got up at 3. Data crunched to BBC radio, and sort of studied for my GIS test. Again, I learned a new trick in Excell. Call me poweruser. Who needs fortran or matlab.

All with a terrible headache. I did get two episodes of my current crack, Veronica Mars, in and took GIS test. We'll see. I got done first, and I did fill out every question.

And I understand that we mishandled notifying them, but who does Iceland think they need defense from? I like Bjork as much as the next oddball, and I love their crazy genetics (limited, isolated population with extensive genological records - treasure trove), but I don't think that puts them in any danger.

Rant about the handling of the Moussoui case when I get enough energy.
