Unfortunately, they only got a few days of exposure after they went up, as their announcement posts scrolled off the main page of my site and into my archives. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/03\/25\/time-for-a-little-blatant-self-promotion\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2004\/03\/25\/the-need-for-speed\/\">The Need for Speed<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">As fun as high speed can be, it's often no real contest against someone who knows how to drive and how to handle their car in various road conditions.

In a letter back to Britain that was originally published in The Guardian, he does a really good job of outlining where Seattle sits politically and economically, especially in contrast to how the U.S. in general is presented to the world. Then, towards the end, he mentions a certain up and coming political candidate that is rapidly gaining notice, and suggests that this might be the man to watch in the upcoming months&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/03\/25\/a-brits-view-of-seattle\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/03\/25\/more-rumblings-from-korea\/\">More rumblings from Korea<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">We really shouldn't forget that in the midst of bombing Iraq back to the stone age, we've also got a fairly dicey situation over in Korea at the moment. A situation that looks to be getting worse, too, since Korea just cut off contact with the U.N. due to U.S. arrogance. <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/03\/25\/more-rumblings-from-korea\/\">&#x27A1;<\/a><\/span><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/2003\/03\/25\/take-back-america\/\">Take Back America<\/a> <span class=\"today_excerpt\">I found this article today thanks to Dori Smith.
