New films could potentially ruin those that came before it. Highlander 2 springs to mind..
Okay, that's a good point. But at the same time, I'll never be ten years old again when I watch a Star Wars movie, so I'll never have the same experience. I accept this and look forward to seeing what they come up with. After all, I can always hate it later once I've actually seen it.
I also take heart in that Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill may need the money, but Harrison Ford doesn't and he signed on. That's a weak sign, but I'll take it as a good one.
Companies that are privately held often behave significantly differently from those that are publicly traded. I might agree with you when it comes to companies in the latter category, but not those in the former one.
If you're not representing a government, then no matter what you do you can't push your laws on anyone because you don't have any. But you can push your principles on them, including through civil disobedience, which when it comes to Internet freedom is a good thing when companies do it in China, the U.S., or anywhere else.
Yes. Have journals be online, for example using free software for that purpose like Open Journal Systems, and have faculty members run them as part of their job description. Some successful and long running journals already operate this way.
I did that stuff for a while, but then it was a long while ago now. By the way, I should have attributed, since those weren't my words; they're just a clip from Telegraph Road by Dire Straits.:-)

Just look like you're supposed to be doing it. This works suprisingly often.
Playboy. Had a subscription since '89. Don't judge me.
In other words, many of the girls in there now were born after your subscription began?
Don't get excited. It's the address of a hotel.
Cryptomomicon
Is that a sequel that focuses on Amy being married-with-children with Randy?
Ahhh... I like the way you think.
I've always assumed that the ones with the best trading models don't publish them.
With the US exporting these laws
Well, something had to replace manufacturing!
That all depends on what your relationship with the typical $14 million is. Sooner or later it's all just Monopoly money.
Out of curiosity, how are those positions not mutually exclusive?
Yes, actually. Crazy Eddie's ads used to show up nationwide because many cable systems carried "superstation" WOR.
I am nerd. Hear me roar.
Rocannon's World by Ursula K. Le Guin
Well, how close are you to the border?
We're talking about removing commercial publishers from academic journals, not removing peer review from them.

For a while, I was their Director of Information Systems. Having lived it, it wasn't hard to figure out what you meant. :-)
It's kind of fun to watch the Bitcoin people act like they invented the whole moneypunk scene, though. :-)
Thank you. I would say it's not inevitable, though, since the other possibility is that they may be crushed like a bug by the feds, like e-gold was.
Then came the churches
Then came the schools
Then came the lawyers
Then came the rules
For the few, the proud, the article readers: Pelle Braendgaard of PayGlobe wrote a much better article on the same topic.
Being in business means you get sued. Deal with it.
The sad thing is that it seems a lot of people actually agree with this.
