I'm having trouble coming up with anything that's not simple complaining, so here's some stuff I read today that wasn't in a review book (probably while I should have been reading a review book):

CNN.com - Coast Guard: No survivors likely in transplant jet crash

Also, the article implies that the whole huge lake never gets deeper than 12 feet. Is that true?

OK, that fills my blogging quota for the evening ;)
