[Weird thing of the day] All tautologies are tautologies

[Aaron Solomon Adelman]

Greetings.

Jewish date:  30 ’Av 5770 (Parashath Shofeṭim).

Today’s quasi-holiday:  National Duran Duran Appreciation Day.  (Don’t ask me.  I don’t come up with (most of) these quasi-holidays.  I just report them.)

Worthy causes of the day:  “Tell the Obama administration we need more protection from for-profit education rip-offs!”, “Tell the FCC: It's up to you, not Google and Verizon, to regulate the Internet”, and “MoveOn.org Political Action: Stop Social Security Cuts”.

Today’s news and commentary:

• “Where Did the Carter White House's Solar Panels Go?”:  Thank you, Ronald Reagan, for your retrograde energy policy.
• “Inside Google Books: Books of the world, stand up and be counted! All 129,864,880 of you.”
• “Genetically Modified Crop on the Loose and Evolving in U.S. Midwest”:  This is not as scary as it might sound.
• “Tiny fish evolved to tolerate colder temperature in three years, study finds”
• “Stephen Hawking's Warning: Abandon Earth—Or Face Extinction”
• “Huge ice island calves off Greenland glacier”

Today’s weird thing is “tautology cat iz tautological”:

Not quite tautological, but close to it.  Enjoy and share the weirdness.

Aaron
