...then The Next Generation (hereafter TNG) arrived in 1987. It was still goofily Utopian - with its sliding doors and ambient lighting and free-flowing synthehol (booze that doesn't give you a hangover), the Enterprise-D looked like a Qantas Club airport lounge - but somehow I didn't care. TNG wasn't dirty and real like Star Wars or degraded and cyberorganic and cosmopolitan like Blade Runner. This was the other future, the one that wasn't ever actually going to happen, but you wished it would. And it was riveting. Unconstrained by plausibility or topicality, TNG was free...
Internet advertising advocates make the case that the Web is a better way to reach consumers. They keep repeating that it is somehow more targeted. Ads can be served directly to discrete parts of the online population based on people's interests.

Maybe I’m just bitter I never got mine...

This false choice is played out week after week in the popular TV show 24, leaving people with the notion that had the FBI somehow caught one of the hijackers in the hours leading up to 9/11, torture would have led to the arrest of the other 18 before those planes took off. We need to put the last nail in the coffin of Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz's idea of torture warrants...
