Liberties, copyright, petitions, oh my...

[ken at flyingtoasters.net]

While we're talking about liberties, I just got a reminder e-mail (below)
from petitiononline.com about the Eldred petition -- the one pushing for
more realistic copyright laws.  Please take a minute out of your day to
visit the below URL and sign up, too.

Thanks,

-Ken

Thank you for signing the Reclaim the Public Domain Petition.
http://www.PetitionOnline.com/eldred/petition.html

We are now up to 13,600+ signatures, and the number is still
climbing. It is amazing how far we've come in just three short weeks.

Our work has gotten attention, and this next week will be crucial. So
I urge you to explain this issue to your friends, family, colleagues,
and neighbors and in turn urge them to sign the petition.  Please, by
next Tuesday, try to get five new people to sign.  If half the people
who've already signed each get five new signatures, then we'll have
our 50,000.  We are hopeful that we might get some movement on the
bill next week, and every single additional signature before then
will make a difference.

If you want more information, check out http://eldred.cc

And if you don't want to receive any more email from us, please just reply
with REMOVE in the subject line.

Thank you again for your help. We will not stop until we have reclaimed the
public domain!
