Buster got an inadvertant shower today when I was watering the garden. He didn't seem to mind. It's so hot out, I don't know how the pugs can stand to wear their fur coats. Buddy looked at me like I was nuts when I tried to get him to go out for the midday walk. He finally came along, but both pugs continually flopped down in any shady spot they could find. It was a lo-o-o-ng walk.
In other news, Lawrence Lessig is still fighting for the public domain. He has a petition up. Basically, he's trying to get the laws changed so that copyright holders must pay a fee after 50 years to keep their work out of the public domain. Thus, if the copyright is important to you, and still making you money, you can easily hang on to it. So Disney can keep their eternal copyrights without restricting every other work made at the same time.
I'm not sure of it, myself. I need to think about it some more before I sign.
