Thomas Leavitt has been ranting about this, that and the other on-line since
the late 1980's... as a sideline, he's run the world's first self-service
web hosting company (WebCom), co-founded an "Internet
bubble" company that died an ignomious and highly deserved death, made and
lost a million (or so), created SavageStupidity.com and been sued for $1.2
million as a result (he won), and run for City Council (to list a few
highlights). ... and no, he's not sorry he voted for Nader in 1996 and 2000.
