How successful is the drug war?
Well, according to this article apparently the drug war seems to be losing ground. Gee, I'm shocked. We should probably pump a few million dollars more into this pointless pursuit. Wake up and smell the coffee people, because it doesn't work! Spend as much as you would like and preach the ills of it, but it's not going to stop it. It's escapism the same way alcohol is for even more people. So why isn't that illegal? DOH! Thus I guess you have a choice. Reinstate prohibition, or legalize pot. Looking at the national debt you shouldn't have any trouble seeing where my vote is going. May 5, 2004 @ 12:27 pm | Category: BrainworkPolarBlog V0.7
I guess we're rounding the bend! The following features have been implemented for version 0.7:- Entry spell checking via the Speller Pages frontend to GNU Aspell.
- Automatic keyword linking and abbreviation tags using phpGiggle.
- Entry word count
- Entry topic Google search link

Basic Word Count Implemented
I've added basic word counting functionality for entries. I've tried a number of different ways of doing this and the one I'm currently using seems to be the most accurate. Additional tweaking on this feature may be implemented if I can come up with a better algorithm to use. Suggestions are always welcome!
