I think all presidents would like to be more radical. The problem is the more change you promote, the more opposition you have. Obama is promoting great change in some areas e.g. state supported health care and all the anti-radicals have come out screaming in opposition.

I'd love to get into politics and make some real change for the better. The problem is all the lunatics and vested interests that don't agree with my version of better. Inevitably what I managed to get put through would be a watered down and rather mediocre version of what is actually needed.

...Stormdriver will allow you to see the web as recommended by other users. It will be much easier to avoid the really bad sites and content...

Isn't that what DIGG is all about? Ranking websites by popularity and just visiting those that other people think are cool?

Don't you people have better things to do with your time than whine about a not-news item being posted on /.? Yeah, it probably should've been tagged as idle instead of games but big deal. If the quality of news is that important to you, try getting out there and making some news that'll make the grade.

Comment How will Customs view these? (Score 1) 242

When I travel internationally, they want to know if I'm carrying food, plants or animals, if I've been near a farm or similar in the last 3 months, etc. Even some states in my country have no-transit zones for food and fruit to limit the spread of noxious plants and animals.

These shoes may require an internationally recognisable "live-bioplasm!" warning badge so Customs people can confiscate and destroy them!
