This show was amazing. Will the people who watch it get the hidden message?
Some news links:
LOL! ABC will probably put this show in the same closet they are hiding "The path to 911" when the message of the show becomes common knowledge.
There's a law suit for that
AT&T sues Verizon over its "There's a map for that" advertising campaign.
More attacks on internet freedom...

"The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one's real and one's declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish spurting out ink."
George Orwell, "Politics and the English Language," 1946.

New Apple iMac performance issues?
The iMac isn't exactly a mobile computer, but this problem is worth worrying about because new Macbook Pros are on the horizon. Until the alleged problem with the iMac is dealt with I have to wonder if it will effect the next rendition of the macbook.
