After Dinner on the 11th I went to CVS to buy more minutes for my phone card where I ran into these tea party supporters.
This explains why one should always have a camera if you want to do this kind of thing.

DaTechGuy’s field guide to (blogcon) Bloggers: Corinna Cohn of Pellucidation

I talked to Corinna Cohn of Pellucidation at Blogcon:
One might find it odd that a conservative Catholic blogger who maintains that gender and sex are one and the same would be interviewing a transgendered blogger. I confess I didn’t know she was transgendered when I interviewed or talked to her later than evening, but you know what, people are people. Why would I not want to associate with an intelligent person who knows economics, blogs and games and is a pleasure to talk to?
Catholicism teaches that people are not a disposable commodity. Whatever my opinion of some decision made in the past, I am very pleased to know Corinna and look forward to future conversations at future conferences.
Why am I not surprised by this story?

I have seen plenty of action on twitter going after the pope, yet I don’t see those same people talking about stuff like this.
It’s really easy to critique people who you know won’t harm you.
