Possible Patriot Act renewal draws protesters (Ohio State University)

More than 100 students, most sporting black T-shirts emblazoned with the question, "Am I a terrorist?", marched across the Oval Friday afternoon to protest the USA Patriot Act.

Many of the protesters, chanting "Kill the Patriot Act," marched into the library and borrowed books with titles such as "Aviation in Arabic," "Islamic Fundamentalism Since 1945," and "Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometry." (Good ones, :) )

1. Is it just coincidence...

...that "Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometry" can be shorted to "LIBS"?

2. On p. 2 of article, there's a poll on the Patriot Act that needs 'DUing'

Do you think the Patriot Act infringes on Constitutional rights?

thats where action and pressure come from, everybody should be bitchin from the rafters on this one, we must see the 'sunset' on this act. I know that Leahey, Jeffords & Sanders (Vermont) will all vote against its renewal.
