"Welcome to the future, where ownership is a matter of perspective and power is determined by the number of computers and amount bandwidth that you control."
So on days when there's some 'heightened sense of alert', CNN.com changes an entire red band across the top to 'BREAKING NEWS' and lists the horrible things that might happen. Why don't they just change it to "You're all going to die" seriously it would disturb me less than the frquency and descriptions over the last couple of days that have appeared and the magically disappeared in that yucky red band.
(I'd post a screenshot but AT&T changed my IP again so my site's will be down for a few hours <sigh>)
