Media guys, don’t be jerks.
No, seriously. Any sort of profit you might make from the copyright restrictions you’re proposing (making it illegal to have a text-to-speech feature on e-books) is negated by the sheer assholery that you’re perpetuating. This is like making it illegal to modify your own home to include a wheelchair ramp, because you’d be violating the copyright of the original building architect. I understand that this is not an apples-to-apples comparison, but you’re still being gigantic jerks.
Quit it.
(and all of you who read this, please post it everywhere)

By day, I'm a graphic designer. By night, I'm a knitter. I'm doing my part to keep Hotlanta stylish.
I imagine that if you don't already understand the title of the blog, you're probably confused and perhaps slightly annoyed, but never fear - I do have a reason (and it's a good one). Having gone to hear Stephanie Pearl McPhee, and then having been inspired to blog about knitting, I found myself wondering what to call the blog. I recalled a conversation I had with Mouse and the Chicken Goddess about why it is a Bad Idea to anger knitters - this conversation was following SPM, aka the Yarn Harlot telling the assembled throng about Those Who Do Not Understand Knitting and Therefore Belittle It Much to the Chagrin of Others, or TWDNUKTBMCO, which is not the acronym she used but is the one I'm using because I forgot hers - that is, we are numerous and we all have very pointy sticks, easily transforming into an angry mob.
Therefore, knitters = angry mob.
knitters = angry mob
