p2pnet Readers’ Writes, June 7-8
p2pnet news | P2P:- Hi all:
I’m taking a badly needed break for a couple of weeks and I’d like to ask your help to keep p2pnet least partially ticking over.
If you wouldn’t mind, if you find stories, links, and so on, you think might interest other people, could you post them as comments?
Ottawa Gal and her husband are going to keep an eye out for spam, etc, and I’ll log on when I can.
Out of interest, on June 7, 1975, Sony introduced the Betamax videocassette recorder for sale to the public.
And on June 8, 1949, celebrities such as as Helen Keller, Dorothy Parker, Danny Kaye, Fredric March, John Garfield, Paul Muni and Edward G. Robinson are named in an FBI report as Communist Party members.
Cheers!
And thanks for the help 
See you full-time again on June 17

Doe 1″), where “John Doe” Boston University students have moved to strike the Carlos Linares declaration based upon the illegal use of unlicensed investigators, the students have submitted — in response to the RIAA’s claim that Mr. Linares hired MediaSentry and in doing so he was acting as the record companies’ lawyer — supplemental memoranda indicating that Mr. Linares
-is not admitted to practice law in the District of Columbia, where he maintains his office, or
-in Massachusetts, where the investigation was.
