Nothing says being an artist or author is suppose to be profitable.
The Baen Free Library is an example of a professional business that has realized that giving people the right to copy doesn't hurt their sales; in fact, it helps them.
There are more people out there that have seen the light.
Oh FYI, unsecure is not a word perhaps you meant insecure and bigtime should either be hyphenated or spelled as two words eg. big time.
Why does all the cool stuff happen on the West Coast?

Come on people you all know that bad stuff is happening like the Hollings Bill and making it P2P illegal and contracts with fellons. These affect the tech sector and geeks like us. BUT this is scary how Bush and his loons are running with a free hand and no one says anything. Those that could are scared of being labeled a terrorist.
America and this adminastration are getting closer to Stalinism than ever before. Not to mention the dash of McCarthyism throwed for shits and giggles.
IMHO this country is going down the shitter. I hope enough people can see this.
BUT I'm not going down with the ship.
So heres a question what are other good progressive countries out there
Canda?
France?
Any opions?
