Foxtrot e-voting machine comic
Today's Foxtrot is a commentary on how little people care about the security of the vote. It's great, really.
It's incredibly easy for someone to steal the vote when using electronic voting machines with little more than a basic knowledge of computing technology and an agenda.
As Jon points out, it's a bipartisan issue. There are ways of making your congressional people aware of it, too. It's certainly an article worth reading. Here's a PDF of it so you can print it for offline viewing (since it's pretty long).
My blog format is a bit too narrow for it, so click the image for the full view.
Cool comic . . . I voted weeks ago, by mail, so my democratic participation is totally secure! Unless the letter got lost in the Pacific Ocean or something. Doh.
Hey, did Planet Ars Lounge die for some reason? The feeds seem to be dead since early this month.

It's not dead, but it is on the fritz. Someone has a post that's choking planet, and I don't care to figure out why. I may just pull the plug on the feed entirely and then re-add feeds individually.
The scripts are running, but they just can't process one of the feeds it's pulling, but I don't know which one.
