What would happen if members of congress had their votes weighted by how many many votes they received in the last general election?  That would solve the main injustice of the senate, and make gerrymandering fairly pointless.  It would also add meaning to even 1 candidate elections. _

 NPR's Here and Now is shameful nonsense.  They just ran a story about Glenn Beck, and introduced it by playing a clip of Father Coughlin.  See, they both have radio programs and political opinions.  If Beck is as that bad, play a clip of him.  Drop the idiotic guilt by association.  I'm pretty sure there's a Coughlin Corollary to Godwin's Law.   _

 It's clear that the snow lasts longer where it's been walked on, but I'd be hard pressed to supply a theoretical explanation for why.  It's the same mass of frozen water that needs to be warmed.  Maybe because it's packed down, it conducts with the ground better, so it doesn't melt until the ground warms up too? _
