#3Two points stick out from this article:
1: > "By using the video and the distance traveled (195 feet) as well as the seconds that lapsed prior to the explosion – in his opinion, the car was traveling roughly 35 mph."
2: > "The pre-explosion could possibly explain the flash of light on the video that preceded the appearance of the car in the video. The pre-explosion and slower speed could also explain the minimal damage to the palm tree and the facts the rear tires rested against the curb. It also provides an explanation for the location of the engine and drive train at more than 100 feet from the tree impact area."
Also remember his body was cremated without permission [1] making this whole incident rather suspect.

Not sure what to think of this story. I would appreciate less political content on 'hacker/startup news.'
That said there is no doubt what Hastings was working on would touch many in the tech community.

fallen. He wept, he entreated, he promised, he flattered, he importuned, he pretended with so much feeling and apparent sincerity, that he overthrew the virtuous resolves of Camilla and won the triumph he least expected and most longed for. Camilla yielded, Camilla fell; but what wonder if the friendship of Lothario could not stand firm? A clear proof to us that the passion of love is to be conquered only by flying from it, and that no one should engage in a struggle with an enemy so mighty; for div

As you might think it is political, I think it otherwise. Investigative reporters have been shown to be investigated and their loss of the 1st and 4th amendments very credible.
I think this article and these news stories should be as far reaching and as far spread as they can be to let EVERYONE know they are losing these freedoms unless they take a stand.

Yeah I'll go with the "gut" feeling of someone who couldn't possibly have been pressured by anyone to say anything in particular when she goes on a TV show that will be seen internationally.

Although I'd never heard the story about Charles Colson, the Special Counsel to President Nixon ordering to kill Jack Anderson, a pioneer in investigative journalism. They considered dosing his steering wheel with LSD among other things but were stopped when they were arrested for the Watergate burglary- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Anderson_(columnist)#Targe...
In 2008, President Bush gave Mr. Colson the Presidential Citizens Medal for all the good work he did after prison.
Who'd believe that a White House lawyer would order CIA agents to kill a famous journalist if those involved hadn't confessed to it under oath?
