Election Eve Show

| Guests: | Open Lines, Bev Harris, Howard Bloom |
During the first half-hour, investigative journalist Bev Harris(1) shared information she has uncovered about the possibility that voting tallies could be tampered with by computer hackers. The problem can be alleviated if precincts deliver their results by car rather than sending them over a modem, she said. Further details on this issue are posted on her website(2).
Later in the hour, author Howard Bloom(3) offered commentary on the recent Osama bin Laden videotape and the election. He also theorized that the correlation between the Washington Redskins victory and the presidential election may be related to testosterone levels.
The remaining three hours of the show were reserved forOpen Lines, where callers shared their predictions and thoughts about what the next four years hold in store for America and the world.

Day of the Dead
A two-day Mexican celebration that honors the dead takes place today and tomorrow. The tradition in which the departed are remembered with food, music, and ritual has its roots in pagan rites as well as Catholicism, Tim Gaynor writes in an article(1) for Reuters.
In San Francisco, an eerie candle lit procession takes place each year on the evening of November 2nd, with many participants dressed as skeletons. In the image on the left that I took at one such event, a huge marionette-like skeleton surreally danced above the crowd.
