    As a citizen of Canuckistan I'm not sure my signature is any good. But judging how manic a lot of people get when their Internet access is just a tad sluggish, I can foresee blood on the streets if the big IPSs offer multi-tiered services.

    The only reason the politicians hate the internet is that they have not figured out how to cash in on it. They hate anything that can't fill their pockets.

    BTW I submitted a story to the Unbound Press - have to see if they bite off on it or not. If not I'll post it on my own site

    Hey, Nanuk, I think your signature will be just fine. :-) Thanks muchly!

    PK: I think they're definitely trying to cash in on it -- big time! Please go and add your siggie to the petition. :-)

    And a WHOOOOO HOOOOO to the submission! I'm guessing you wrote one up 'specially for Unbound Press, yes? Totally awesome, dude!

    They didn't take my stories, but Amy said she'd send me some pointers so it isn't a total loss. I just want to make sure I am not wasting my time writing.

    PK, sorry about the no-go, but do not ever say writing is a waste of your time. You have a knack with words (and Mummy agrees, so you know it's truth!) and I enjoy reading your posts very much. Given the comments that are posted at your blog, I think you can safely believe your talent is very real and wonderful.

    Don't give up your blog and don't give up on your submissions.

    Please.
