Hmm, good ques...Is freedom shared a freedm halved? Hmm, good question. Maybe I'll add it to my FAQ. Anyway, I think it's clear that there is no mystical loaves and fishes thing going on with my thermos. If I were to provide the masses with a taste of my coffee, they would be very fleeting tastes only. And there would possibly also be a meningococcal outbreak, unless the masses brought their own cups. I'm pretty sure that shared freedom is not a public health risk in the same way that shared coffee is.<br /><br />Perhaps people can taste the freedom just by watching me pour my coffee, and thinking, "Hey man, that's freedom!"<br /><br />Perhaps you can taste the freedom just by reading about me pouring my coffee. Can you? Can you taste the freedom right now?PTRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01804620638450848244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3465120560345153062.post-11508373813119409422009-05-20T21:33:57.819+09:302009-05-20T21:33:57.819+09:30PTR,

Is that the taste of shared freedom? Is freedom shared, a freedom halved?<br /><br />PS Can anyone else smell something musky and acrid?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
