    Tortoise

    Tortoise! Why are they so hated? Is it just residual backlash from their critical apex circa late 98/early 99? Is it because they haven't released anything good since then?

    Todd Edwards

    what if he wins?

    i, for one, am going to embrace our future of higher gas prices, out of control government spending, more dead soldiers, possible front-door draft, cotinued erosion of church and state, tipping of the supreme court, possible overturning of roe v. wade, intellectual and social backsliding...
