[olug] congressman Terry needs more attention

Correction.

One solution would be to stop watching so much TV (stop getting plugged in). It feeds the marketing campaigns that fuel such movements. Loss of revenue. TV is good for all and all good, not.

It is like a drug. We all want to get another fix without the pushers control. If it wasn't money for them they wouldn't pursue it. If it isn't a fix for us we would not fight it.

My TV consumption a week = < 2 hours. Transform the news paper into an electronic form would they bitch about copyright? Like most services that produce paper publications. They put online their pubs in limited fashion and offer subsciption services for the complete service. It is lost revenue for the publisher to place the entire piece online subjecting themselves to lost revenue w/o advertisements from hyjacked stories broadcast in email etc.

Forgive me if I am out of line. It is not my intention.
