As you can see I’m switching to a 3-column layout.

I’m also adding tags to each entry. You can see them at the end of an article.

Hopefully, these changes make it easier to navigate EIL and they should be completed this week.

Here are two topics I’m currently researching:

• The proposed Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) and its controversial provisions
• A look at the Weaponization of Space.

Of course, if there are any topics you would like me to review, please contact me using the links in my profile.

This list is so popular that the website crashed. I was able to grab a copy and have posted it hear with Amazon.com links for easy browsing.

Enjoy.
