    Post Reference Links

    Reference Links, Data, Information, Ideas, Theories... where do you get yours?

    So what do you use to get your dose of information.

    This is a short list of places I tend to visit when looking something up

    News:
    http://www.news.com.au
    http://www.news.com.au/otherside/ (really good for news of the weird)
    http://www.smh.com.au
    http://www.nzhearld.co.nz
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/

    Reference:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

    Science
    http://www.newscientist.com/home.ns

    Outside the Org:
    http://www.nasa.gov
    http://www.hardwaresecrets.com
    http://www.cisco.com
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    "That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).

    Have you just been dumped?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.
