Now that I'm back I want SG to be what remember it being, but it has a very high noise-to-signal ratio and I just feel lost.
The Pirate Bay founders have been found guilty of facilitating illegal file sharing and sentenced to a year's imprisonment and a £2.4 million fine.
Internet file sharing? That's nothing, what about illegal book sharing? Cities and municipalities all over the world have been flagrantly running institutions called "libraries" which allow, and even encourage, members of the public to freely access, utilize, copy, share, and make derivative works of a wealth of copyrighted material. How can this be allowed?
It's only a matter of time until this spells the end of the book publishing industry in the same way that VHS killed the movie industry and cassette taping killed the music industry.

I have tried very hard to move to self-adhesive. Stamps, envelopes, whatever. Think about it, you're LICKING a strange object. You don't know how it was made, you don't know who's "handled" it in it's long journey to your tongue. I'd put money on the fact that they're not manufactured to food grade standards and that more than likely that envelope you just slobbered all over was made in some poor third world country with no hygiene standards by an uneducated worker making .30 cents a day who just got back from their bathroom break.
Think about it...
Damn, now that I've thought about it, who made my new toothbrush?
