It's the Economy, Stupid

To study for the Court Cases exam (being administered next week -day TBD), please use your Court Cases spreadsheet from Google Docs.  If you didn't do it or have a lame doc, look at a previous post for a link to other groups' work.  We'll finish Ch 17 next week, have a speaker, take a test, and maybe watch a Law & Order episode.  The following week will be devoted to Chs 19 & 20.  Go read, study, and enjoy the free Monday.

Big Brother comments aside, consider the following regarding public vs. private in terms of public services.  Is internet access becoming a necessity for our citizens?  If so, what minimums should be set  - and who should pay for it?  Check this out (knowing that a typical DVD is 4GB and a Blu-Ray is about 20-30GB, while a 1 hr tv show in standard def is about 350mb or 700mb in HD):

  4. TV shows are more like a gig in true HD.

    (because that's clearly the most important part of this post)
