Hi Doc and the rest of the list,
Doc's post stirred something I have been thinking
about on similar lines this last week about fair
use/copyright issues. My thought was a giant teach-in
in DC around followed by going to Congressfolks
offices and telling them we are serious, this issue is
important.
If we want to do it and have real effects I think the
following groups need to be included and
coordinated...
recordingartistscoalition.com (Don Henley and enough
artists to get mainstream media attention, besides
they are getting screwed here too)
American Library Assn (Publishers are going after them
too)
Scientific Community (don't remember the group but
there was something in slashdot about them discussing
not publishing because of fair use)
and the tech folks
With a lineup of each group going in and saying this
is serious and it deserves attention, you'll get
members listening...especially if we can draw from
people all across the nation to attend. I can help
coordinate the DC end.
If anyone else is interested in getting this started
let me know...
Thomas
