"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work."

First thing this is from the highly liberal Huffington post. D'oh. Gotta love those comments.
Second. Third arm? Dude. I suppose if you've been eating hamburgers then you would already have one. If it hurt you. Which it doesn't.
The only thing that I would care about is if it makes food cost more. Spinach already costs more than I think it should.
And to expect farmers to document where they get their fertilizer and how they irrigate? GRRRRR. That's really excessive. They are already regulated on how their farms are set up. Documenting water and fertilizer that would be time consuming (and sometimes difficult, especially if they're trying to grow organically) and what would it solve? It makes food cost most because farmers would have yet another step (a useless one) to take their time.

Anyone know how/where I can get a Japanese language pack to install on my computer?

Dr. Horrible. My favorite musical.
Easily his best role since Doogie Howser.
I completely agree. Nathan Fillion does a great job as Captain Hammer too.
