Orange, orange, against the plying of the slight

In space no one can hear you scream
try the public library!

Once upon a time Russell Brown used to write for the NZListener, commenting on the Internet. Now he's given up journalism for television, though he still runs the Public Address commentariat.

Recently one of his cohort of bloggers, Fiona Rae wrote: "Good news, everyone. Science fiction is coming. That's if you haven't already downloaded it from the internets, put it on a flash drive and played it on your 32-inch widescreen LCD TV via your PS3. Ahem. What I mean to say is that season three of Battlestar Galactica starts tomorrow night on C4."

What's telling here is that of all the involuted options to access the tv series she explores none mention the public library. Hmm.. I wonder why. At NSL say, just say, for example the dvd set has been available for at least six months. Arghhhhhh! Have another orange.
