Re: [WISPA] 7 days till Vegas

2011-10-04 Thread Forrest W Christian (PF Lists)
I think Vegas is one of those towns that for some people, it takes a 
while to figure out what they like to do.   The obvious in-your-face 
stuff isn't for everyone.But when I quit thinking of Vegas being 
what I thought it was, and started just roaming looking for things to 
enjoy, I found a whole new appreciation for the town.   Before I 
described it in many non-complimentary ways and preferred not to go 
there - although it isn't really on my top list of vacation spots.

And for the record, I don't gamble, drink, smoke, or do many of the 
other things which made Vegas famous...  But I definitely can wander 
around and find something fun and entertaining - especially since I tend 
to be a people watcher at times, and also like good food, music, and an 
occasional show or two.

Oh, I guess I do gamble, if you call throwing a $100 on a craps table to 
be able to hang out and watch some of the characters which show up 
around a typical craps table gambling.   But with the effective loss 
rate on a passline bet of only about $5 per hour on a $10 craps table, 
it tends to be pretty cheap entertainment - which is really what I 
consider it.

Re: [WISPA] DMCA Takedown

For those of you who are just ignoring these:  I'd recommend you read up 
on the DMCA safe harbor rules  See 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Copyright_Infringement_Liability_Limitation_Act

In short, if you follow the steps under the law, you have an affirmative 
defense against the copyright holders suing you for contributory 
infringement.
