	<description>Scott Bradford has been building web sites and using them to say what he thinks since 1995, which tended to get him in trouble with power-tripping assistant principals at the time. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration from George Mason University, but has spent most of his career (so far) working on public- and private-sector web sites. He is not a member of any political party, and brands himself an ‘independent constitutional conservative.’ In addition to holding down a day job and blogging about challenging subjects like politics, religion, and technology, Scott is also a devout Catholic, gun-owner, bike rider, and music lover with a wife and two cats.</description>

This protest has since concluded, but it is still very important that you contact your elected representatives and demand that they oppose these bills. This [...]]]></description>

But as a web site operator, even of a dinky little blog like this one, these bills stand [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On February 27, 1933, Marinus Van der Lubbe—an unemployed bricklayer from the Netherlands with Communist sympathies—set fire to the Reichstag (Parliament) Building in Berlin. Most likely, Van der Lubbe was working alone…but that didn&#8217;t stop Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party cabinet from using the fire as an excuse to initiate a broad anti-Communist pogrom.

It is, however, open-source so it had the potential to live on. Well, I&#8217;m happy to report that Jonathan Dale has picked up development and the application will live on as Clear [...]]]></description>

I very seriously considered replacing it with another BlackBerry but decided to give Palm another chance with its WebOS operating system. After Palm&#8217;s implosion, I ended up choosing Android.
