With our Fellowship fundraising drive drawing to a close (though we're always happy to receive unsolicited donations!), The Tyee is now looking for pitches from journalists with ground-breaking, solutions-oriented ideas. We're here - thanks to our readers' generous donations - to help fund these investigations!

What are my thoughts?

You know, I did read it and thanks for posting it by the way. I had heard some disturbing things and wanted to give it a once over. I confess, I didn't give it my fullest attention as I did a lot of skimming. Skimming in itself denotes a lot of bullshit to wade through, I would think - or at least not the kind of substance that I'd like to hear.

I was posed with a great question tonight:

when one creates something, does this created thing belong to its creator?  or upon creation does it suddenly belong to the human race?  the reason i ask is because a few years ago, i was drawing during class, as i always did, and suddenly didn't like what i was drawing.  so i scribbled it out.  the person next to me was shocked that i'd do such a thing and chastized me for destroying something that he thought was beautiful.  ever since then, i've had a hard time letting go of things that have any creation value whatsoever.
