Thursday evening roundup

Zakaria remembers Huntington.

This is a silly article about federal salaries, as discussed in many of the very good comments, which follow many absurd ones. Robert Gibbs' position and salary shouldn't be compared to those of an 'average PR executive' (nor to those of the average career federal employee, for that matter).

If you buy only one product organic, make it strawberries.

Consumer Reports finds that people think they eat more healthily than they actually do. I did a quick count and figured that I eat about 14 different vegetables and fruits a day, mostly in less than a serving each, so it probably comes down to 6-7.

Oh, Post: could you possibly more miss the point than by citing the modest increase in Boca burger sales as an indicator of slow growing veganism? Check your own paper: How many of these resolutions entail something vegetarian or vegan?
