News! News! News!

Big goings on in the world today -- first, apparently German scientists have cured some dude of AIDS. The upside? Potential cure for the worst disease the world has seen thus far. The downside? It involves stem cells, so even if a reliable cure is found, it will probably never be allowed in the US...

In other news, Michael Moore has put up the money for Julian Assange's bail. He also makes some good arguments in favor of the whole wikileaks thing, including the fact that former FBI Agent Coleen Rowley, Time's 2002 co-Person of the Year, claims that had WikiLeaks been around in 2001, 9/11 might have been prevented.

Curing AIDS and preventing 9/11. Now that's a news day...
