...billion for agriculture that could help his re-election chances in Montana next year. Majority leader Tom Daschle has begun talking of attaching Senator Robert Byrd's $20 billion "homeland security" package to the legislation as well.

...repetition of the same basic facts; an even more substantial amount of completely irrelevant material; and absence of the actual essay or letters Weinberg is responding to, which often renders the author’s points utterly useless for lack of context. In fact, for those interested in the meat of author’s arguments, I advise skipping directly to Chapter 12: “Sokal’s Hoax,” unless one wants to read a circuitous recap of the history of physics...
