"IMHO, it's a bad idea to change policy based on outliers. News is usually news because it's unusual; if it's commonplace, it isn't news but it's more likely to affect people. (News can also be news because it throws into relief a previously unrecognized larger problem.)

"Getting killed by spree shooters or terrorists is news. Dying in a car accident or in a domestic incident isn't, usually. The not-news is what we should be trying to fix, not the news."

I meant to post this earlier in the week, but I've been distracted by the whole car-shopping thang:

Tomorrow, Saturday, 28 April 2007, The Homespun Ceilidh Band will be performing at the Celtic Festival of Southern Maryland at Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum. in St. Leonard, MD. We'll be on the Pub Stage at 14:00.

The festival runs from 10:00 to 18:00; admission is: $12 for Adults, $5 for Children ages 6-12, Free for ages 5 and under, $44 for groups of 4 adults. It's a pretty nifty festival on a nice site, and if you check out the entertainment schedule you'll see a few other familar (or ought-to-be-familiar) names besides us.

AFAIK, I'll be there; I've just got a couple of transportation details I'm still sorting out.... I hope to see a few familiar faces there as well.
