This newsletter-type-thing just came in from Jewish Voice for Peace: Dear Jonas, Frankly, I’ve had enough of the lies and distortions surrounding the UN Goldstone Report. I’ve had enough of the maneuvering by Israel, the US, and other countries in order to dismiss the report and its authors and bury it altogether. If you are [...]

Good news, everyone!
Today has been a day of excellent progress in Phenomenon 32. I still occasionally build levels that are too big (i.e. that won’t be playable on normal hardware and have to be altered), but I’m very happy with this strange post-apocalyptic world that is coming together.
