warrug.com! "Information and market for Afghan War Rugs." Kinda interesting to see. Pricy rugs.

Well what do you know - a whole entire website apparently devoted to every aspect of the topic of Feral Children.

Ancient Egyptian funerary figures stand accused of moving around in their glass museum cases.

All about grisi siknis, a form of "collective madness" that has broken out in a Nicaraguan village. The symptoms are 'long periods of coma-like unconsciousness, interrupted by sudden bouts of frenzied behaviour'. Hmmm.

Is the famous Voynich manuscript just 'elegant gibberish'? Does it matter...?

Everybody Wants to Rule the Web, but the Internet seems rather uncontrollable to me. Well, hopefully.

I was more impressed with Michael Crichton's 'Remarks to the Commonwealth Club' on the need for a more rational environmental movement than I was with any of his books that I've read. Well, I think I've only read Jurassic Park and Sphere, but it was still a pretty good speech. Remarks.

'Sony Dream Robot' QRIO led me to the sudden realization that walking, talking humanoid robots creep me out. QRIO's only a foot tall though so I guess he's not so bad.

I still love Tom the Dancing Bug.
