The (old) Licquia Family Blog
This is the old blog site, powered by a simple blogging system called
Blosxom. It's here to keep
old links from breaking, and for whatever historic interest might remain.
Here's the current site.

I'm a little miffed by CNN's
weather reporting. No mention was made of the recent storm until it
hit the East Coast; now, it's front-page news. A nearby county actually
had its roads
shut down for a while on Saturday. But this is Indiana; storms must
not be news until they hit New York.
It appears I'm not alone in my dissatisfaction.
Ben
Hammersley and
Dan
Hon (among others) have a few problems with their spotty, possibly
biased Iraq coverage. I'm no peacenik (I'm undecided on the war so far;
more on that later, maybe), but it's difficult to make good choices with
bad facts.
Ironically, the most useful source of news for me right now is the
BBC. They have
fairly useful syndication, and they did better than CNN at reporting
both the Midwest storm impact and the UN resolutions. It's too bad when
an American has to go to London to get decent news.
