Here in Indianapolis, there seems to be a good supply. My pediatrician offered to give my three year old her shot at her annual check-up (we took her up on that) and that's the first time she's had them available for in-office dispensing. Usually she sends us to the annual "flu shot clinic" that the visiting nurse association holds.

The rest of the family (me, the Mr. and the 6 month old) will still be getting our shots at the clinic. If there are Indianapoloids in the Fluorosphere who want to know, I'm happy to share times/locations.

Jeremy--

I think it's a better demonstration of the Libertarian argument that in the presence of slipshod and ineffectual regulations--poorly conceived and more poorly executed--nothing gets fixed.

For those of you who haven't seen it:

Chad-

That seems to me to be exactly right. The best poetry is the best because it knows how to think, and it has interesting things to think about.

Sometimes Vendler's analysis of poetry strikes me as slightly cold-blooded, occasionally ignoring the heat that runs underneath the best stuff. But I've always felt about myself as a poet--and about most other poets I know--that we're essentially a cold-blooded crowd. Certainly, who other than a poet (or other writer) will undergo an intensely emotional experience and--while experiencing it--think, "This is going to make an absolutely kick-ass symbol!"

Actors, maybe, I suppose.
