Is this where we are going in Canada, or are we already there? Do we have designated groups who we cannot offend under any circumstances, not even the findings of social science? Do we have people who don't understand the difference between "some" and "all"? Perhaps.
Perhaps for others pretending there is no difference between "some" and "all" is a ploy to exploit PC scrupulosity...? To make sense of the link, substitute "PC ideas" for "religious ideas" when reading the question and the answer; a definition of scrupulosity is here. The university and the student, as I see it, are being uncharitable. The accusation that "some" and "all" are mere fudgewords is plainly unfounded and very likely politically motivated.
One the reasons I think I find Paul Martin so distasteful is that I think he suffers badly from the same disorder and this is a gaping weakness in a leader, one that is easily exploited. Conservative strategists would do well to expose it.
Better read this while you still can. Hilarious and true, not that that's any kind of excuse, mind you.
My move to Mac has been very happy except for two issues - gaming and blogging. For websurfing and multimedia, a Mac is of course a terrific machine. Games on the Mac platform are often ports of games made for the larger PC market and that means a Mac gamer will have to wait for the port. I'm not a heavy gamer by any means but I am very happy that the Mac port of Civilization 4 is finally here. Well, my copy isn't here quite yet - but it has been ordered and ought to be here soon. The blogging issue is more complicated. I'm not fond of writing my posts in a browser window. This goes back to when I was first blogging and I lost one or two large posts into the ether. After that I moved to w.bloggar - a great little app that let me compose on my desktop and then click send when all was said and done. 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...
