Response from Ben Wallace
You’ll remember that I wrote to my MP, Ben Wallace, a couple of days ago about the Digital Economy Bill. He responded by email today. I’ve not really analysed the message yet; I’ll do that tomorrow. For now, here’s the full text of the response: Dear Mr Binns, Thank you for contacting me about the [...]Archive

Quick tumbly musings
I had a long and involved conversation with my friend Michelle last night about the nature of consciousness, the existence of free will and the need for a story to be happy (or at least not entirely bleak) before it gets bleak.

‘Twas the night before
It's almost ominously quiet in my office right now. Normally there'd be the low, rattling hum of my PC filling the room, masking all the little creaks and burps that the hot water tank, which sits, fenced off in a cupboard in the corner of this fairly tiny work space, makes all through the day [...]Archive

Time in a bucket
I shouldn't be writing a blog post, I should be doing something far more productive, like, to pick an example of something I need to do before I go to bed, the washing up. Trouble is that – washing up aside – I'm far too tired to actually be willing to do anything other than [...]Archive
