\"tiny The <\/FONT>pbs\/NOW segment<\/FONT><\/A> last Friday on the rights of corporations and “corporate <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
personhood” raises some important issues.  The background story on the Pennsylvania<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
townsfolk wanting to stop the opening of a stone quarry is compelling.  There are a set of <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
interesting materials available at the NOW website, including a chart with <\/FONT>voices from the the debate<\/FONT><\/A>.  <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
As usual, I thought that Freespace’s Tim Sandefur<\/FONT><\/A> came off as far too absolutist.  I do like his <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
honesty at Freespace that night, relating his <\/FONT>grandmother’s reaction<\/FONT><\/A>: “But I thought Tim <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
was for the little guy!”<\/FONT><\/DIV>

post at Crescat Sententia<\/EM> called <\/FONT>Pot au Feu<\/FONT><\/A>, photographically documenting <\/FONT><\/DIV>
