In the news today

A New York City antiques dealer is suing four homeless people for 1 million dollars to keep them away from the front of his store. They are lingering, drinking, sleeping and "performing various bodily functions such as urinating and spitting" outside his store on Madison Ave. Apparently the police were no help so he's suing. And that's going to help....how?

New online encyclopedia project called Citizendium starting up soon. It's going to be open source like Wikipedia but moderated and all submissions will be verified first. Anyone can contribute, just like Wikipedia but as we know, not all the info on Wikipedia is correct and it's easily hacked. Good luck to them i say.
