		<title>Why Hybrid Tube/Solid State Guitar Amps Aren&#8217;t The Worst of Both Worlds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve recently written about the differences between tube and solid state amps. On a related topic, many guitar amp manufacturers are now selling hybrid tube/solid state amplifiers. Most guitarists look down at those with thinly veiled contempt. Basically, such amps are said to be the worst of both worlds. I have to disagree. There are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Using Copyright to Encourage More Infringement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are law firms out there which are basically extorting money from victims. Their M.O. is to get IP addresses for an entire swarm of people downloading porn via bittorrent and then sending out &#8220;settlement&#8221; offers via the ISP. For those who don&#8217;t settle the firm files a lawsuit against the IP addresses and requests [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Do Tube Amps Sound Louder Than Solid State Amps?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a common belief among guitarists that tube amps are louder than solid state amps. I&#8217;ve seen little 30 watt tube amps blow away ginormous 100 watt solid state amps. This is not a myth, it&#8217;s a fact. Here&#8217;s why. First, it must be pointed out that watts are watts. Tube wattage is not different [...]]]></description>

		<title>Copyright Maximalists or Middlemen Protectionists?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every so often a Copyright Maximalist gets caught violating copyright. For example, France&#8217;s President, Nicolas Sarkozy, was accused of violating copyright. SOPA sponsor Lamar Smith has been accused of infringing a photographer&#8217;s copyright. People are outraged by this. They consider it hypocritical. How can someone demand stronger copyright laws, but then ignore the laws currently [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas on Venus and Mars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A woman wrote &#8220;Ask Amy&#8221; for advice concerning her husband. The wife complains that she does all the preparations for Christmas and her husband does nothing. She wants to quit and let her husband suffer the consequences. I find it hilarious that men are supposed to know that men and women view things differently, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Crappy but Free&#8221; is not a business plan</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A guy named Tyler Nichols has decided to stop offering a free “letter from Santa” service because, according to him, it’s not worth the effort. I feel bad for his experience, however, in and of itself free is not a business plan. To put it another way, free only works as a part of larger [...]]]></description>

		<title>Even non-bots are idiots</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve complained before about the spambots trolling Craigslist. Basically, if you post an ad on CL you&#8217;ll almost immediately get spam emails from pretend buyers. I&#8217;ve started including my Google Voice number when selling stuff on CL, but the responses have not improved. Some guy texted me: Intereated in cl post And then texted me [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Can&#8217;t Get There From Here</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw a confused guy in his late 20s walking in the hallway on the third floor. He walked right past a double set of elevators and past two doors, each with huge lighted signs above them saying &#8220;Exit,&#8221; each with second signs saying &#8220;Stairway,&#8221; and each with huge windows through which you can clearly [...]]]></description>

Fiona: Michael, any news on the people who burned you? Michael: I&#8217;m supposed to get a call from someone who knows someone who is a neighbor to someone who [...]]]></description>

		<title>Right to Work versus a Right to Contract</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My state is considering enacting a Right to Work law. Right to Work, who could be against that?! Everyone should have right to work, how could there even be a downside to that? Here&#8217;s the downside. Right to Work laws conflict with our rights to enter into contracts and have them enforced. Imagine this. You&#8217;re [...]]]></description>
