Democracy as a universal value

George emailed me this article written by Amartya Sen, former Master of Trinity College at Cambridge University. Although six years old, it fits in nicely with today's not entirely superficial appearance of Francis Fukuyama on Dutch television. (The website of Dutch PBS incorrectly portrays Fukuyama as the 'resident ideologue' of the Bush administration, which is bollocks: Fukuyama voted for Kerry and opposed the war against Iraq.)

Freud would have been proud

From the BSG bulletin board: 'Gorilla war'.

Friday night's ep 'Pegasus' was brilliant (yet again). Anyone out there who didn't notice the allusions to the McCain-Graham amendment?
