I got sick of staring at Bert so much, so I created a new terror alert page.

A song by Live:

i talk of freedom
you talk of the flag
i talk of revolution
you'd much rather brag
and as the decibels of this disenchanting
discourse continue to dampen the day

the coin flips again and again, and again,
and again as our sanity walks away

all this discussion
though politically correct
is dead beyond destruction
though it leaves me quite erect
and as the final sunset rolls behind the earth
and the clock is finally dead
i'll look at you, you'll look at me
and we'll cry alot
but this will be what we said
this will be what we said

look where all this talking got us baby.

Look where all this talking got us, baby. Four more years. Republicans control Congress. God help us.

Make sure you remember to get out and vote today. Everything else is less important, and can wait.

That is all.

So, it turns out that the guy who runs the Electoral Vote Predictor website is Andrew Tanenbaum. The first thing I did when I read that was look up at my bookshelf for Operating Systems: Design and Implementation. Apparently, I don't actually have that book. I thought I did, but I guess not. He is mentioned in several of the books I do have, and everyone who has studied operating systems should know who he is. I then continued reading the Votemaster FAQ, to see if it was actually the same guy. It is.

I just wanted to say thanks, for your great contributions to operating systems, and for running a terrific website that I've been following every day for months now to keep up with the election.
