Pulling this from Flutterby who pulls it from Salon

Salon has an interview with Larry Flynt about his suit against the DOD for reporter access to Afghanistan:

You’ve filed this suit, but have any other news organizations done likewise?

No, and it’s the mainstream media that should be filing this suit, not me. They’ve got more money than I’ve got. The only reason why they’re not is that they all want to be politically correct. Each of them are concerned about who’s going to get the next interview with George and Laura Bush, rather than getting out there and fighting for the First Amendment and preserving it.

We were talking about this on the way home this evening, lack of the US journalistic questioning anything from the executive branch lately.

Oh, and Larry Flint is one of the reasons to be prowd of my Kentucky heritage. Way to go Larry.

uServ Project Page

One reason for the web’s success is that it makes it extremely easy to access content. uServ is a system that makes publishing content just as easy, and at a very low cost. uServ harnesses existing desktop computing infrastructure, allowing its users to pool resources to provide high availability web hosting and file sharing. By using existing web and internet protocols (e.g. HTTP, DNS), uServ does not require those who access uServ-published content to install special purpose software. Its high availability, wide accessibility, and low cost make uServ a superior alternative to paid hosting services and other content sharing networks for a wide class of users.

We’ve all seen lists of wacky 404 errors, but having just re-read Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, I found this one funny. Even more so since it’s from a company and not just some web slacker trying to be cute.
