Public Access: Fortifying the Electronic Soapbox
"A popular government, without
popular information,
or the means of
acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce
or a tragedy; or, perhaps both.
Knowledge will forever govern ignorance. And
a people who mean to be
their own governors, must arm themselves with
the power knowledge gives."
- James Madison -
