Technology has its pluses and minuses. Tough encryption lets shoppers protect their credit card numbers from theft, while it also allows truly private conversations (both e-mail and voice). Encryption also gives criminals and terrorists the means of keeping their nefarious plans secret.

Strong encryption shouldn't be outlawed; then only the criminals (who would ignore the laws anyway) would have the means of keeping electronic secrets. Law enforcement will just have to find new, constitutional methods of finding out illegal plans.

Ms. Houston is following in the footsteps of her trouble-making husband. All she had to do was cough up a little cash and her marijuana charge would have vanished. Now, she faces 30 days in jail and a $1000 fine. If she goes to jail, she would be the sweetest sounding jail bird in world history.

Why, oh why is Nirvana's Nevermind number 2 on VH1's 100 Greatest Albums of Rock 'N' Roll? I did think it was something fresh and new when it came out in 1991(?), but now Kurt Cobain's angst-ridden songs feel stale. Angry, hopeless music can only be entertaining for so long. Also, how can you put Nirvana at number 2 while leaving Led Zeppelin all the way back at 43 (their debut). Even worse, Guns 'n Roses' Appetite for Destruction ranks ahead of Zeppelin, and they certainly didn't out hard rock the masters.
