We lack the sophistication and sangfroid the situation required,and will require the next time.<br /><br />With the mayor and even the governor hitting the symptom instead of our dumb reactions, there's little immediate hope of fixing it. We can be the one city paralyzed by the tiniest bit extraordinary. <br /><br />The literal types and libertarians will have their own, to me, bizarre, interpretations. It's good we have some common goals beyond that.massmarrierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02358207247771711952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703913.post-45333768739063342952007-02-01T21:16:00.000-05:002007-02-01T21:16:00.000-05:00I confess myself frustrated with a lot of the so-c...I confess myself frustrated with a lot of the so-called "reality-based" people.

That point about these lit-up thingummies literally hanging around in plain sight for three weeks does not bode well. Gov. Patrick and others saying what a great job the security forces did is positive risible.massmarrierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02358207247771711952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703913.post-40908126411174316712007-01-31T18:45:00.000-05:002007-01-31T18:45:00.000-05:00Crikey, I swear I hadn't read you before I posted!...Crikey, I swear I hadn't read you before I posted! It does look like most people under my magic number of 33 knew what these things were. That doesn't absolve anyone, because there seems to be idiocy enough to go around.Unclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17576979900477102398noreply@blogger.com
