		<title>Macbook Air running Vista benchmark</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I put Windows Vista on my MBA because I need to be operational for business and I don&#8217;t have time to learn how to use a new operating system (and find replacement applications for those I normally use, and put backup procedures in place for the new OS, etc, etc).
Kudos to Apple, the MBA hardware [...]]]></description>

		<title>Charles Stross - Singularity Sky</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just finished Singularity Sky - fantastic, recommended. Smacked strongly of Reynolds and Banks, but that&#8217;s good company as far as I&#8217;m concerned.
I found out about Stross because he&#8217;s a fellow geek and even better, had some of his work available for free download. I first read The Concrete Jungle and then bought paperbacks of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Who do we blame for pubs closing?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Granddad had a good old rant about the government targetting smoking (they obviously haven&#8217;t read The Tipping Point). I&#8217;m agreed with him on most of his argument but I question this one:
First they introduced the ban on smoking in public places. Pubs are now closing at the rate of one a day. The government wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t [...]]]></description>

		<title>So you support W&#8217;s policy on Kyrgyzstan?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I normally stay away from laughing at dumb Americans because they&#8217;re too easy a target. This video was too funny to pass up. Featuring cryptic questions like &#8220;how many sides does a triangle have?&#8221; and &#8220;name a country starting with &#8216;U&#8217;&#8221;&#8230;
