Progress in e-mail
The Atlantic Monthly published a fine article Email is Still the Best Thing on the Internet, laying out all the reasons why e-mail, no matter how often people have claimed it's dead, is still thriving.

Applying the Hobby Lobby decision
A friend notes:
The company simply does not want to be forced to pay for something to which it objects.Since it's the Supreme Court, other courts have to apply this ruling in future cases. So here's a few:

- I'm a fundamentalist Mormon who rejects Spencer W. Kimball's 1978 revelation and believes that black people are cursed with the mark of Cain. I don't like EEO law, but understand that my company has to hire qualified black people. Does it have to pay for their healthcare?
