DISQUS Doodlings: So, the City of Toledo has declared that Lake Erie has “rights”?
I first saw this over at, naturally, Treehugger where all kinds of “just shake your head at it” stuff comes up.

What we can learn from the Cursive Wars

And there the fallacy lies – they immediately see only the collective, as if all that wealth belongs to said collective, State … Read more
