Comments on: The Politics of Parsing http://www.digitalbrainwaves.com/2007/11/04/the-politics-of-parsing/ Politics, technology, pop culture, photos, or just plain silliness... here's what's on my brain Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:22:50 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Dave http://www.digitalbrainwaves.com/2007/11/04/the-politics-of-parsing/#comment-4548 Dave Sun, 04 Nov 2007 16:32:58 +0000 http://www.digitalbrainwaves.com/?p=326#comment-4548 Must not be a fan of Michael Moore's movies either... I wish there were more videos of alpha-geeks exclaiming that "200x will be the year of the Linux Desktop!" so that someone could put together a montage of them... I'm almost as sick of hearing that as I am of politicians! Must not be a fan of Michael Moore’s movies either…

This could well be nothing more than a clever editing job, attributing a specific opinion to the wrong subject. That sort of think irks me.
