Part 1 is now online at: http://www.webreview.com/pi/2001/06_29_01.shtml The Meaning of Independence Day This will be enjoyed by people on the Interest People list. Because of it's length, I'll include only a teaser here. "The Meaning of Independence Day: The First Amendment and the Internet in a New Century" won unanimous approval from the faculty committee. On their scoresheets, it came out far ahead of either of the next contestants: "The Meaning of Independence Day: A Victory for Checks and Balances" and "The Meaning of Independence Day: Freedom from Unreasonable Taxes." Hedy waited weeks for publication. The end of school came near, and still it hadn't appeared in either the town newspaper or the Web site. She approached the newspaper editor, who simply said he was still waiting to receive it. The teacher responsible for Web content was slightly more informative, saying that it needed "administrative approval" before going on the Web. Andy
