This is... Disturbing. Not in the tediously obvious 'Brains! Brains!' and shambling sense, but in the sense that if you generalise out from pain (Interesting enough in an Oliver Sacks freakshow sense), you begin to wonder (well I do anyway) if anyone reacts to any emotional state in a useful manner. Or are they/we all just copying what we've seen other people do or what Hollywood scriptwriters think is supposed to happen. Basic stuff for the philosophers and dope-smokers in the audience, I should imagine, but somewhat resonant for the less-empathic geek types. [ Lifted from my ex-boss' weblog. Have I ever mentioned how much I enjoyed working at another.com? Probably not. Hi Steve! (Not that he'll see this, mind...) ]
Why no-one in their right mind should vote Tory. You'll have to scroll down to the section headed 'Core values' - "Castrate paedophiles" ? I'm not sure I want that sort of vengeful authoritarian running, well, anything. Still, there we are. 'Only following orders' eh? I'll bet they'll make the trains run on time. (Though didn't Mussolini only manage that by pitching out the timetables or redefining the concept of 'on time'?)

Nigella Lawson proved to have her head screwed on. Peter York once again shows he's a mincing fop, which is probably the point of his continued existance. And she digs New Order. Tolkein 'bout my generation indeed.
The Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical. A fine thing (re)found by hazeii. Goes very well as a chaser to the Zombie article linked above.
