The Constitution itself went into effect in 1789. But troublemaking blogger Marcy Wheeler points outthat what was missing from the Constitution in 1787 is also quite symbolic: The Bill of Rights, which did not officially go into effect until December 1791 after ratification by states. (Caution: Marcy’s post has some strong language.)
How appropriate.
“We want to emphasize the symbolism.” Good lord.

I'm Dan. I live in Chicago and get around this fair city on a bike. I mostly put pictures here because I'm not too good at writing. The major topics I cover are cycling and food.
I game a little bit; I'm on Steam and Xbox Live as dciskey if you want to be Internet friends. That's also my Twitter ID if you require up-to-the-moment information.
