Speaking again on the subject of fanfic, if any of you love it, you'd better write your congressman/MP. The latest "Copyright Law" being advanced in Europe, Britain, Canada, the US and Australia (among others) will basically end fanfic as we know it. Up to now, large companies have tolerated it, but the new version puts the liability on ISPs, if someone hosts "copyright violations" on their servers. Work in question will be deleted, and the user who posted it will be banned from the ISP; his family will be banned and his yardboy will probably be banned. ISPs will have no discretion, the user can only go to court (paying thousands) to contest what's happened and the burden will be solely on the user to show that he/she hasn't violated a copyright. Courts, these days, typically take years to get to such suits.
