PinFeed Almanack
Welcome to the new millenium.
  
  The Almanack takes a superficial view of history:  For the first time since the
  adoption of the alphabet, the political leader of the culture of the alphabet 
  will not be a European.  He will be a tall, skinny guy from Illinois, who 
  uses the alphabet as well as another tall, skinny guy from Illinois.  (Thanks, 
  CNN.)
  
  Ancestry will never be irrelevant, but suddenly, it means something very 
  different than it has in the past.  Having parents from different continents
  no longer disqualifies.  
  
  This is a change of social attitude large enough to finally, and hopefully,
  turn the last miserable page of the twentieth century.  
  
  Congratulations, president-elect Barack Obama.

     I agree with you that this is finally turning the page. Not a small step, but I 
     giant leap for the US.  Lets hope that he can find the people to solve our 
     issues and get us back in the direction of being a world leader.
