...this particular case, De Kort's lack of tech savvy works for him - a flashy presentation of his bare-bones case would make his video look like a PR tool rather than an earnest documentary. And his mere presence makes the video more immediate than a faceless blog entry would be - it's an original production, not a series of cut and pasted snippets from elsewhere...
...months of discussing this issue, little has been said about the "domestic" consumption of illegal immigrant labor. You'd never guess that so many households rely on housekeepers, nannies and gardeners.

The main thing to remember is that, in the end, they are all filled with the same faceless and miserable people. However, according to chaos theory, all the New Jersey chaches will eventually end up in Cabot, so there is some hope...
