Some excellent satire on the RIAA from Brian Briggs - "Ford Testifies to Stop Ride Sharing." A small quote:
William Ford Jr., CEO of the Ford Motor Company testified before Congress about the nationwide problem of ride sharing. Ford cited ride swapping as the number one reason for the the company's declining revenue. "These 'pool pirates' are depriving Ford of rightful income. Three sometimes four people are sharing rides. Less wear and tear on the cars means fewer new car purchases. That's revenue that's being robbed from Ford."
Someday we'll look back and laugh about another industry that couldn't adapt and would rather litigate than innovate.

Mac OS 10.2 will be publicly released by Apple tonight. Some of the Jaguar theme logos people have come up with are very clever. BTW: Jaguar is the Apple's codename for Mac OS 10.2. Lots of people outside of Apple have taken to calling it that as well.

It's a good thing.
