••can ye pass the acid test?••

ye who enter here be afraid, but do what ye must -- to defeat your fear ye must defy it.

& defeat it ye must, for only then can we begin to realize liberty & justice for all.

time bomb tick tock? nervous tic talk? war on war?

or just a blog crying in the wilderness, trying to make sense of it all, terror-fried by hate radio and FOX, the number of whose name is 666??? (coincidence?)

adam caption


sunday on meet the press, an e j dionne statement included a sentence that appeared in the closed caption as "adam smith is spinning in his grave so fast."

but that wasn't the whole sentence. dionne went on: "...that he would qualify as an energy source under this bill." needless to say, many hearing-impaired viewers had no idea what he meant.

i'll keep posting on the topic of flawed closed captions till somebody does something about it. feel free to comment or post other examples.
