Two examples of local idiocy

- Black protesters greeted the opening of the King Tut's exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art with protest chants of "Tutankhamen's back and he's still black.". They were angry at recent efforts by scientists to reconstruct Tutankhamen's face using CT scans of his body, which show him to be much less African in appearance than the activists were comfortable with.

- PETA wants the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach to stop serving fish at the aquarium restaurant, comparing it to serving "poodle burgers at a dog show." But shouldn't they be against all aquariums as imprisonment for fish? Oh, nevermind: they are already. Amazing they find the time for all this in between dumping puppy corpses at night
