Re: What are you reading?
The quality of the readers is indeed patchy but the good ones are excellent! I suggest you 'taste-test' before downloading.

Re: World News Thread
The No campaign used scare tactics and misinformation.
The booth I was at yesterday had a 70 / 30 stream of yes voters, and I foolishly got my hopes up.
