Linkage brought to you by: "A friday in my newsreader: Febuary 22." Also by the letter 'A'.

Occasionally, so many wonderful posts appear in the lull between the Thursday doldrums and the Friday excitation (pun much?) that I have to “link it up…er…mott”.

  1. It turns out that you can see the effects of trawling for fish from space. Do we need any more evidence against it?
  2. Uncertain Principles posts about the backlash from the Virginia Tech shootings: turns out stage plays with fake wooden weapons endanger students…according to some college administrators.
  3. Uncertain principles also wonders if there is any realistic nanotechnology in SciFi writing.
  4. That encrypted hard drive you might have? Worthless now that the encryption can be broken…easily.

Oh and as a side note, anyone else watch one of my favorite video blogs: http://tv.winelibrary.com/?

I don’t usually do this, but this was too good to not share.
The following video is about a little Kiwi (the flightless bird from New Zealand) and was someones masters thesis.
