Been doing a lot of reading about how people are protesting the legislation about the internet. What really puzzles me, is How does putting limits on what people can post interfere with "freedom of speech." Is stealing the intellectual property of others really freedom of speech? Doesn't seem that way to me. Theft is theft and especially when some of these people borrowing the works of others make money doing this. If someone can explain to me how someone taking the stories, songs, movies, under a person's copyright isn't theft but freedom of speech,I'll listen. Don't think its' possible.

Last week was fairly productive even with several days off for a short Thanksgiving trip. Am now 80% done with The Chosen of Horu. Will continue to work on it this week. Can't wait to finish and move forward. Soon be time to set goals for next year. I always have goals and I try to make them ones that I can overcome and go beyond.
