Johnny's Software Saloon

Weblog where I discuss things that really interest me. Things like Java software development, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Macintosh software, Cocoa, Eclipse IDE, OOP, content management, XML technologies, CSS and XSLT document styling, artificial intelligence, standard document formats, and cool non-computing technologies.

About Me

Name:
Location: Germantown, Maryland, United States

I like writing software, listening to music (mostly country and rock but a little of everything), walking around outside, reading (when I have the time), relaxing in front of my TV watching my TiVo, playing with my cat, and riding around in my hybrid gas/electric car.

Bush grants Silicon Valley's wishes

MercuryNews.com | 02/01/2006 | Bush grants valley's wishes:
President Bush elevated the issue for the nation Tuesday, announcing a decadelong ``American Competitiveness Initiative'' that would pour $136 billion into scientific research and the promotion of math and science education.

This is excellent news for everyone in the technology field and good news for anyone involved in the US economy.



Much of today's quality of life that we take for granted stems from the inventions and discoveries Americans of previous generations. Their creations also helped strengthen the economy of their generation.



Now it is up to us to do the same.
