    SOPA Strike

    So the internet's going on strike this Wednesday, January 18th in a massive protest against the evil that is the SOPA/PIPA bill. Information can be found here.

    Are we participating?

    We should. And we'd be in good company.

    Re: SOPA Strike

    I won't even be home all day, so that's fine with me. But it would be good if TFF did. Is Fuzz around to do that? Someone should e-mail him and be like "Hey! Do the thing!" Anyhoo...

    EDIT: FYI, the Whitehouse Will Not Support SOPA, PIPA.

    Update on that, Tele. Because of the dissaproval of it, it has been dropped so that it can be "reformed" and is supposed to return next month. Don't drop your guard. Also, google has a SOPA/PIPA page up where you can view info/sign petition, etc. I haven't looked at it thoroughly myself yet (waiting for the reddit blackout in 1hr ).

    Re: SOPA Strike

    Yeah. I read some article that said the Whitehouse flip-flopped on something else recently too, at first threatening to veto it, and then signing it into law the next month... Thankee for the links.

    So I guess TFF is not blacking out, then. Heh. I said I wasn't gonna be online today either, but then I got bored... Anyhoo...

    So are we supposed to be spamming local government officials with e-mail, or what.

    Links to ways to "take action", contacting your senators and signing a petition.

    Meier: Hey Pete, I said I started to, it just didn't end the with the same number of women. Then again this one is kind of on the outs with me if she doesn't straighten up and fly right so that means I will be back in it for the thrill of the kill. Got some in the reserves. Even got a rePETEr (<---- like that ay? AYYYYY?) on the back burner.

    Block: I do like the rePETEr except it kinda makes it sound like you're going to pork Pete. No homo.
