How Many Sexes Are There?

According to Argentinian doctors, there are two sexes, male and female. Well, since the human race has been in existence for untold thousands of years, I'm glad they finally straightened that one out!

Folk singer Pete Seeger finally chastised Soviet ruler Joseph Stalin in song. It's good that Mr. Seeger recognized that "Uncle Joe" was really "Bad, Old Uncle Joe", but what took him so long?

You can read the story here. It's not clear if Superman voted for Hugo Chavez, but one of the "Supermen" was interviewed on state television. I rather doubt he would have been interviewed if he had voted for the "incorrect" party. The report unfortunately doesn't tell us how Batman, the Flash, or the Green Lantern voted.
