Remember the SEP field in one of the Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy books?

Time to put one around the Terry Schiavo case.

SEP stands for "somebody else's problem." It made things invisible, sort of.

I haven't been able to turn on the TV or radio for two weeks without hearing endless discussion of the case, and... I'm not willing to learn every side of the issue, so I don't want to comment on it. I'm not going to vote on it, and I can't do anything about it.

That's all I have to say about it. (Not entirely true, I've said a couple things at CPF's and 86 Tips.)

Can I move on now?
