To clarify: the title is excerpted from Act 1 of Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost. The full quote goes: "Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguile; So ere you find where light in darkness lies, Your light grows dark by losing of your eyes." It's a warning against spending too much of your life in scholarly pursuits.

Katrina
In response to a couple of my correspondents -- no I am not blogging Katrina. This is the sort of thing that TV does better than the blogosphere. Besides, Instapundit has all the links anyone could want. Check it out here.
I will note that the usual suspects are trying to tie this catastrophe to global warming. The BBC has been particularly offensive in this regard, implying that it is Bush's fault for not signing onto Kyoto.
The Times-Picayune reports that police and firefighters joined in the looting -- ugh! [here]
Our heart goes out to all those affected by this storm. They are in our prayers.
Nuff sed.
