I sitt nye utkast til Vær Varsom-plakaten er Norsk Presseforbund harm ovenfor ellers anstendige aviser som på nettet har "overlatt en del [...] In reluctant defense of e-books: I'm beginning to warm up to the idea of reading books digitally. I've always liked books on paper. I like to hold them, and own them, and mark them with dog-ears and whatever you call those lines that form when [...] The Gulag distraction: It was dumb of Amnesty to compare Guantanamo to the Gulag. Dumb in the way it was dumb of Bush to call the war on terror a crusade. In a friendly interpretation, both metaphors clumsily summarize more intelligent ideas, but [...] |

He could have been more specific about who he's talking about, though. A generation is a vague target. Btw, the world is upside-down when Klassekampen is a forum for interesting debates. 4 comments2005-06-17 Scifi readers will want to buy Accelerando by Charles Stross.
