Good news!
The best few words I have e-heard today:
"Hate to tell you this, but you have to go to Italy this June..."
If this means what I think it means, a paper I wrote about RFID was selected as a winner of a contest that sends me to Italy to drink some wine and look at some packaging facilites...FREE.

If I wasn't already scared by the monopolistic control these the phone and cable companies have on keeping us using copper wire and coax... This would be absolutely horrible. Basically all the bright, sunny images I have of the future would turn into the most sick and sadistic marketing campain. Ugh, i'm getting chills.
