University repositories 

Since I seem to be just in quote mode today, here's Lileks on UMD idiotarian James Fetzer:
Some people believe that we are but a day away from torchlight rallies and death camps, that a vast pulsating mass of nascent fascism throbs right beneath the surface of American society, eager to shoot through the cracks. They will only breathe easier when a president quotes Che in his inauguration address. The world is full of these guys, and it always been - but what�s unique to our society is that these people find a home in the Universities.

When I was growing up, the term �professor� connoted respect and accomplishment. It was a name society gave to its wisest citizens.

Isn�t it funny what children believe. No matter what their age.
