Shoulders of giants for rent (Jun 10 2004 16:59 GMT) - Did you know that US and EU copyright laws now extends creator's rights to their deaths plus 70 years...effectively perpetuity? Or that Canadians enjoys cheaper meds than the USA, due to Canada's anti-pricefixing laws? I've been reading Boing Boing's Cory Doctorow (and former Torontonian) argue for reform in today's intellectual property laws for a few months now, and he's always impressed me in how he makes his case. If you ever wanted the 5-Minute University on Intellectual Property, look no further than Wired's colour centerfolds on trends and statistics in piracy, medicine, genetics, and my current topic de force, open source. |

Fundie fathers (Jun 10 2004 16:58 GMT) - No big surprise: sexist homophobic fundies who leave the household chores for the little lady make better husbands and fathers. It's an interesting result, because it contradicts any mumber of current views: The nature of man is to choose his own nature, so human relations are better if they are formless.

Message: Re: News Article -- Nextel accused of stealing (Jun 10 2004 16:57 GMT) - I'm sure you are correct because the "stolen phones" were active and were not deactivated.
