Your article "Redefining the American Dilemma" is on point. Blacks have always been pluralistic, and there has always been debate about how best to solve our problems. In recent years, however, publications like yours have ignored all opinions expressed by blacks except those deemed to be some sort of official "black view." Such individuals as Tom Sowell were forced into confrontational defenses of their well-researched and articulate conclusions, which differed from the media's general notion of the black view. If nothing more, you may be waking up to the reality that thinking by black individuals is no more...
Like HAL in 2001, though, the computers are not infallible. The Target ran into what he considered an odd ethical dilemma about a month ago after a bank computer notified him that he had made two deposits of $1,000 each, when he knew perfectly well that he had made only one.

Economists say the bank's 2% benchmark interest rate is far too low for the strongest economies, providing them with plentiful cheap money and helping fuel both a credit boom...
...Paul Chadwick's The Human Dilemma, and his other Concrete tales prove the superhero genre has no inherent literary limitations except the ones brought by a character's real-life role in the culture. Either they are there to move you or to move the products they are associated with. Owned by an artist and not a company, Concrete can be invested with meaningful characteristics that give his stories literary weight. Concrete: The Human Dilemma goes beyond mere genre, combining surprising visuals, smart characters, an entertaining story and above all, engaging issues into a work of valuable literature...
