I just listened to the most recent This Week in Tech episode (number 135), and oddly enough, I agreed with practically everything that Jerry Pournelle had to say. Must be a first.
Among other things he had some sensible things to say about the new Apple iPhone SDK, the Amazon Kindle, and human nature.
"The free market will eventually drive itself to selling children in the marketplace. Slavery. [...] I mean without regulation, the market will do anything. [...] If you offer a billion dollars, there is nothing that somebody won't do."
Yep. Take that, Michael Shermer! LOL
