Welcome to Three Weeks Ago, New York Times
Covering the story as if it were breaking news — albeit with the inclusion of song lyrics that bloat the article — the New York Times has caught on to the controversy over the CERN neutrino experiments that I covered a month ago in WorldNetDaily. "Physicists," rambles Dennis Overbye, "who are quite sure that in [...]

Technocracy — Family Court: Where's the Compassion?
My WND Technocracy column this week was inspired by a couple of horrible news stories about parents who harmed their own children. "Justice and power," said Blaise Pascal, "must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just." What I found, when I did some research, [...]

Technocracy: How Many Enemies Have You Made Today?
My WND Technocracy column today was summed up by the editors there as, "Phil Elmore explains how free speech produces countless cowards." I could not sum it up better.
