New Yorker writer says: [Many clueless things, including:] The net poses a fundamental threat not only to the authority of the government, but to all authority, because it permits people to organize, think, and influence one another without any institutional supervision whatsoever.
Oh, Dear. We Certainly Can't Let That Happen.
Sigh. This gentleman obviously needs to be regrooved. Does anyone have his net address?

Well, as I read that sentence in isolation, it is true, and a Good Thing. I will be concerned if the author is urging "institutional" supervision. Guess I gotta go read the New Yorker now. Sheesh, you guys, you get me to read the Atlantic Monthly, now the New Yorker. I hope they have gotten away from their dilatory style, and that the cartoons are still good, if I gotta waste my money this way.
