“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
— The Continental Congress, July 4, 1776
“The task of statesmanship has always been the re-definition of these rights in terms of a changing and growing social order.”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt (Commonwealth Club Address, 1932)
“Roosevelt was wrong! The principles laid down in the Declaration of Independence are the principles of individual liberty. Our unalienable rights, given to us by God are given to us as individuals. Our rights do not come from society or the government, and they cannot be redefined by politicians. The nature of these rights carries with it the implication of individual responsibility, without which we surrender them.”

URL Rewriting code finished

I've finished working with the URL rewriting code for a while.
The permalink format has been changed. If you link to a post using the old style permalink, the user's browser will be redirected to the new permalinks, so references to old posts should not be broken.
The new style permalinks are based on the year, month, and day of the post, as well as the post identifier. For example, this post's permalink would be http://perrinelson.com/2007/1/2/355.aspx (Sorry, without more control over the IIS configuration of my website I can't get rid of the ".aspx" there).
The permalinks are hackable now too. What that means is you can strip off path segments and still have a valid URL. For example, http://perrinelson.com/2007/1/2 will bring up a page with all of the posts for today, and http://perrinelson.com/2007/1 will bring up a page with the dates and titles of all of the posts for January, 2007. The titles of the posts will be links to the actual posts. That should make it a lot easier to find a post in the archives.
You can also strip off the month part of the path. That will bring up a page with a link for every month that posts are found in the year. After each link will be a count of the number of posts for that day.
Let me know how you like the new feature, and if you find any bugs in it, please let me know about them in the comments as well.
