New at the Archive

Have you been to the Internet Archive yet?

The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public.

Recent additions to the Archive include: recordings of Franklin Roosevelt and the Grateful Dead’s 1993 concerts. For example:

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt asks Congress to declare war on Japan
Grateful Dead Autzen Stadium Eugene, Oregon August 21, 1993

If you are not familiar with the Archive go check it out. and if you are then go try out some of this new material.

If you support a policy of taking action against known terrorists then why would you ever vote for bush or any bush supporters?
