Shameless Self-Promotion

I had a piece on the drug war that ran on the Cato site yesterday, and that generated this lengthy, sometimes banal-sometimes insightful discussion on the Fark site (one commenter called me"another white liberal, ridden with guilt"!).

Also, I wrote an I-told-you-so piece for Tech Central on the CDC's admission that it's incessant claim of 400,000 people dying each year to obesity was probably a bit inflated (pardon the pun).
