not that this is some amazing article, it just makes more sense here than in OT I think

Ayn rand, shadowy worlds, black widows


interesting article talking about how film noir relates to libertarianism

also  discusses the various ways that technology has made getting lost in the cracks alot harder than it was in the 40's.

Thank-you for bringing that article to our attention, lester 1/2 jr. I don't know enough about film noir to comment on it, but I do know that film noir is one of my favorite generas of film. And while there have been film noirs in color, something was lost in the genera, when films went from black-and-white to color. Thank-you again.

have you read that book "dark city"?  it's pretty good. one point he makes is that it ended with "psycho".  no more noir after that

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
