		<description><![CDATA[Well, not alive live&#8230;
Across from the place on the Ferdinand Bolstraat where they sell belts there is a place where they will punch holes in belts, and I am guessing they are sort of ashamed of charging money for such a simple activity, so they don&#8217;t.
Recently they put a tip jar on the counter. I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[H. Piper Beam&#8217;s science fiction novel Little Fuzzy has been &#8216;rebooted&#8217; by John Scalzi (see here and here). Scalzi is still shopping for a publisher for Fuzzy Nation, as his novel is called. It is not entirely clear what the difference is between a reboot and a re-imagination.
I read Little Fuzzy a couple of years [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just me brainstorming. 
Authors should be obliged to exploit their works. When they don&#8217;t do that for a set period of time&#8212;ten years tops sounds reasonable&#8212;their copyrights should be transferred to an entity that will exploit it for them. Authors of works that are only fixed in rapidly decaying media, such as anything digital (where [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The British-Dutch mega-publisher Reed Elsevier spent more than 3 million dollars in bribes lobbying fees in the US last year. What the publisher hopes to get back for this money? It probably won&#8217;t be a more balanced and more honest form of copyright. The US politicians that were bolstered by this &#8220;support&#8221; have been bullying [...]]]></description>
