Gangs of New York

I watched Gangs of New York earlier this week. Though I'd like to have seen the 1978 version Scorsese originally intended to make, this one was quite cool. Daniel Day-Lewis was without a doubt the star of the show. The only thing that really bothered me were the accents. Why did they disappear in some scenes only to reappear in the next?

There's an interesting article on the O'Reilly website, entitled Consuming Amazon with Flash Remoting. Shame I'm giving up the Lyrics Archive, because I'm seeing cool new possibilities. But I just don't have the time. Sigh.
