		<description><![CDATA[I ended up driving nearly 500 miles yesterday to go find a new house that is closer to my new job.  Much of that driving was on interstate highways, and I sadly encountered quite a few drivers who couldn&#8217;t manage to yield the left lane to faster moving traffic, making the drive longer and less [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I first read the story about Blackbird, a web browser for African Americans, I thought it was a joke. Sadly, some people seriously believe that African Americans need a special web browser.  As an African American, I must say that that I find this to be bad (and offensive) idea: Blackbird&#8217;s &#8220;Black Friendly&#8221; Features [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently had the displeasure of experiencing some racism in my personal life. A racist white person felt it was proper, while drinking a beer near me (I&#8217;m an African American), to use the word &#8220;nig*er&#8221; to disparage the language skills of a 3rd party. The person who made the racist remarks was a drunk [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spam email is not fun for anyone, however I&#8217;ve seen some people go about combating spam in the wrong way: There are a variety of companies that offer an anti spam verification system.  Basically, when a person emails a recipient for the first time, their email is prevented from reaching the recipient&#8217;s inbox.  The sender [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve noticed that in our society, we seem to be in a &#8220;race to the bottom,&#8221; insofar as civility and politeness are concerned. This is especially true when it comes to debating politically or otherwise contentious issues.  Allow me to explain why I see this as a problem: Many pundits, politicians, or ordinary citizens seem [...]]]></description>
