[NYTr] One Laptop per Child: Irony of the Week Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 04:41:16 -0600 (CST) Via NY Transfer News Collective * All the News that Doesn't Fit Activist Times Issue #512 - Nov 26, 2007 AND NOW, THE ACTIVIST TIMES "IRONY OF THE WEEK" IRONY OF THE WEEK Nicholas Negroponte seems like an upright, outstanding, moral, thinking, action-oriented do-gooder type. He really does. His "one laptop per child" project rocks! I even heard him say he's tried to suggest that Bush's admin give one laptop to each and every child still alive in Iraq and Afganistan. That he thinks it could change the world for the better. Boy could it ever! So the irony of ironies? He is John "Deathsquad" Negroponte's little brother. http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=04/04/28/1449257 http://www.ww4report.com/negropontedeathsquad http://www.oilempire.us/negroponte.html * ================================================================= NY Transfer News Collective * A Service of Blythe Systems Since 1985 - Information for the Rest of Us Our main website: http://www.blythe.org List Archives: http://blythe-systems.com/pipermail/nytr/ Subscribe: http://blythe-systems.com/mailman/listinfo/nytr =================================================================
