It's Like Drudge for Smart People

Check out againstdumb.com. I don't like that there's no "about" info, though. Who's behind the site? Is it the Moonies?

Regardless. Here are some headlines you probably won't see in mainstream news sources:

"Constitutional compromise and slavery"

"Tom Stoppard bemoans loss of printed word in favor of moving image"

"Ancient Greek mystery cults"

"The World That Never Was: A history of anarchists"

"Vienna, site of spy trade, no stranger to cloak-and-dagger work"

"Ian Buruma on Christopher Hitchens's memoir (and narcissim)"

"Wyatt Mason on the challenges and rewards David Foster Wallace offers his readers"

"A brief history of air conditioning"

Hello, my afternoon. Nice to meet you.
