[vox] Social gathering tonight! (Tue 3/7)

[Brian E. Lavender]

I missed the context on the non-profit status? I was thinking about the
non-profit status. Democracynow.org focuses on political issues as normal
routine and is a 501(c)3. I think that when it comes to political issues,
the group itsself can discuss and debate issues, but can't necessarily
take a stand on the issues. Someone know more about this?

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
