Why is innovation and progress the exclusive purview of the California legislature? Why couldn't Kansas have the first open source textbook? #
That's not to say all things enacted by the California legislature are progressive and innovative. But they leap forward more than most. #
(R) & (D) platforms rarely intersect. Both support "internet freedom", not #netneutrality http://t.co/VLAKzuTz Demand more. #

My disgust with @Klout continues. I've watched my score drop from 48 in May down to 26 yesterday. Today, it is 45. Magic! #
Plus, as an added bonus, my score analysis on @klout (my history) never shows my score dropping below 44. Revisionist history FTW! #metrics #
I share this @klout information with all of you not to brag about my tepid 45, but to point out the absurdity of these #metrics #
Now, rather than spend one more moment of your life thinking about @Klout, do something important and read this: http://t.co/Dn5z6vRU #
