I'm pleased to hear of many improvements in the lot of the average brit, thanks to comments in the thread on (what was it again) crypto regs. Sounds like things have picked up since I was last there in 93 - and folks have some additional rights. I was astonished at how low the unemployment rate has gotten.

Figured I'd make a blog entry, and see if Dave Wieners passion will be come more apparent to me. We're coming out of our LA heatwave, and I couldn't be more glad - 105F in downtown - it's a wonder the crazies didn't spontaneously ignite.
