Aaron Swartz comments on presidential candidates. ¹ I’m surprised Howard Dean is so conservative; online he seems to have a much more progressive image.
I started to read a few pages of Nagib Machfus’ *Palast der Sehnsucht*, ISBN 3293200753, vol. 2 of the Cairo trilogy, but then I put it aside in favor of *The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire* by Edward Gibbon, ISBN 1853264997. I found out that the real book as 71 chapters, and that the book I bought only has 28 of them. Oh well. If I like it, I can always order the complete thing. It is still over 1000 pages. ;) The interesting part is that it was published between 1776 and 1788. That old, and still so good! I am very excited.
