Robert, I think that you especially will appreciate it. It's Washington's farewell address translated into modern English by the guy that does the xkcd comics. And has he (the xkcd guy) says at the end: "Wow. That was fun, depressing, inspiring, and a little bit spooky." I agree completely. Makes you wish you could just mail the thing to all of our current politicians and force them to read it and THINK about it...
Ah well. Got to run off to a project meeting now. Laters!
