"Greetings all,
Today your congressmen and women are debating a bill
To CENSOR the internet!
No, not about "kitty porn" or even about bomb making....
It is about corporate lobbying $. The want to censor anything
That may not benefit their ability to make MORE MONEY.
Please help to stop our country from becoming totally
BY BIG BUSINESS FOR BIG BUSINESS instead of by the
People, for the people!
Democracy ONLY works if THE PEOPLE take an active Role.
Please read below and, if you are a US citizen SIGN THE
PETITION ! This most definitely effects the meteorite
community."

" This week there will be a historic filibuster of the Internet
Censorship Act where the names of every person that signs
a petition against Internet censorship will be read. I added
my name. Please add yours too.

A shorter URL for the above petition is http://tinyurl.com/SOPAPROTECTIP

The numerous problems with the SOPA and PROTECT IP
legislation is discussed in detail in "Congress considers
anti-piracy bills that could cripple Internet industries" by
Alex Howard, O'Reilly Radar, Novmber 22, 2011.

This is a very important issue as it will impact eBay, Youtube,
and any web site with user generated content that meteorite
people use to communicate with and educate each other and
the public in general.

Other petitions are:

B. Stop the E-PARASITE Act
