I have a degree in journalism. I've been writing the code that makes Slashdot [slashdot.org] go since January 2000. I used to edit stories, primarily in the Apple section [slashdot.org].
I maintained MacPerl [macperl.org], and do lots of other Perl [pudge.net] modules. Mac OS was my primary OS for more than 15 years, and I currently do most of my work on Mac OS X.
I also do some music [pudge.net].
My PlayStation Network ID is pudgenet [playstation.com].

Riddle Me This: Russia Edition
Friday August 15, @09:24PM
I was listening to Bill Richardson on "This Week" say that it's basically Bush's fault that fighting was continuing in Georgia, because if only he had a better relationship with Russia, we could put pressure on them to stop, and Obama would do just that.
Riddle me this: when has any nation anywhere, ever in modern history, put such pressure on Russia to stop doing something like this?

Bill Richardson is an idiot (Score:1)
How, exactly, do you put effective short-term/military pressure on a country with several thousand ICBMs who knows we are much less likely to use ours first than they are?
Anyone who can answer that can gripe about us not doing anything about the Georgian situation.
