academia going down...

... the drain

note: if you are annoyed by ads (especially the animated kind) just don't visit the BuzzMachine at night... I mean that seems to be what's going on... (I thought I was halucinating at first but I'm positive there was an animated Treo ad running *at night*, but that seems to be the only time...)

I agree with Robert (on the general idea) — academia wondering off from the objectivity goal is even scarier than the press doing that (maybe we need to deal with ideology the same why we deal with religion — they seem to be very similar at the fundamental level: you just need to *believe* and… stop thinking!)
