Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

Kate Malcolm comments skeptically on a suggestion from Time that the Two Towers is symptomatic of the current cultural mood. The movie was, of course, filmed several years back.
She also points to a project in San Francisco to produce electricity for 28 cents per kilowatt-hour -- but without pollution.
Then there's this Slate piece about BearingPoint's (formerly KPMG Consulting) name change and ad campaign. It reminds me of the new DaimlerChrysler ads with the tagline "Answers for questions to come." For a car company.
She hasn't mentioned the new Red Sox general manager, who is the youngest GM ever for a major-league baseball team. I wouldn't necessarily expect her to, except that he's a Yale grad.
