And speaking of VNU (and people who should become consultants), the fair and impartial Greg is mad because a story he liked didn't get front-page treatment.

We might be inclined to agree here, except the story did get wide play on the Web, so front-page exposure isn't THAT important anymore; and besides, we can think of lots of important stories it wouldn't bother Greg not to see on the front page.

P. S. Your blood pressure at work:

The terrorist attacks on New York and Washington on September 11, 2001--you remember them. Cost nearly 3000 American lives and haunted the families of the victims. Traumatized the nation. Damaged our economy, led to a new cabinet department and the controversial Patriot Act. Gave the new U.S. president, who was foundering in the polls, almost unprecedented power and popularity. Led directly to a war against Afghanistan and overthrow of the government there. Led almost as directly to the invasion of Iraq, then a continuing war and occupation that has cost another 2000-plus American lives and countless billions of dollars in expenditures.

Wait a second, Greg -- the Iraq war is EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL. Isn't that DUBYA's fault?
