My very first link is still there

On 5-6-2002 on my first post on my Notebook blog I linked to this: Dissent -- the American way.

EVER SINCE Sept. 11, President Bush and U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft have tried to quash dissent by questioning the patriotism of people who seek to protect our civil rights and liberties.

They are terribly misguided. Nothing is more American than dissent.
