Knowledge Indignation: Road Rage
on the Information Superhighway
Produced by Stan Correy
On the eighth day God created the Internet
so that eventually everyone would know everything.
But mankind didn't want to share, and
created new technologies to control the
miracle of the Internet, and knowledge
became a commodity.
Scientists are the first to rebel, and 26 000
have signed a petition.
After the first of September they'll refuse to cooperate
unless scientific knowledge is set free.

regards,
Mike
