"After the ecstasy, the laundry." -- Zen koan

I know we did not get all the victories we wanted. I know there is a hellacious amount of work to be done, and miles to go before we sleep.

Did you see the hilarious (mostly for the title) blog post in the NYTimes about "Dead tree editions sell out"? Apparently *every single newspaper in New York* sold out. (Well, close to it. The reporters found exactly one available before everyone started running reprints as fast as they could. ;) ) Apparently *everyone* wanted a paper copy to preserve for posterity, to the point that it was dangerous to put your newspaper down for a minute in the coffee shop because people would walk off with it.

I'm not sure what that says, but I think I like it.
