Michael Moore

Michael Moore deserves to lose respect over this thing. He lied about what went on with his movie, trying to drum up publicity or outrage (or both).

He also deserves to lose respect because his little stunt has obscured the real issue. Disney really is refusing to distribute his film. It's censorship, of a sort.

lightning

I saw/heard the most amazing thing. I was looking up as a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. You know how it takes an instant from start to finish? And then it takes a few seconds for the sound to reach you? As the bolt streaked across the sky, it made bigger flashes at every bend (which was a lot). And with these flashes there were simultaneous snapping noises. And then it took three or four seconds for the thunder to hit me. I wonder what happened to make that sound travel at the speed of light. Or seem to.
