Jason Hayes has posted the latest Red Ensign at Musing. This is getting to be quite a big job and he's done a very fine roundup. So head on over- and bring your friends.
The Red Ensign group are conservative and libertarian Canadian bloggers who are united in their desire to see Canada return to the larger and more muscular stance it had on the world stage until about the mid 20th Century.

I have not been able to recreate that experience on my Mac, and not for a lack of trying! I looked at Marsedit , but that forces you to compse while staring at a bunch of HMT...
