h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

My entry on critical rationalism, at http://www.h2g2.com/A262739

There's stuff in a similar vein collected at the Freedom From Fiath Foundation. With your permission, I'd like to drop a link there for this fine piece.

Doh! Forgot to provide the link: http://www.h2g2.com/A254314

Mine? Be my guest... you don't really need to ask, I consider most of my stuff fair game If you meant the actual 'discordianism' article you might have to check with its author who doesn't seem to have been around in several months.

Umm, no, uhh, no offense, but I wasn't really looking for your approval.

But, as you seem to be right about the author, I guess I'll link it anyway, and wait for him to come storming in with his lawyers to remove it.

No offense taken; I was just wondering who the hell you were talking to since you posted as a reply to my thread You can still visit my article if you like though *sniff*.

As far as lawyers go, unless I'm mistaken orthodox discordianism doesn't have much truck with that kind of stuff; more laws make more crime sort of thing. I'm sure the author, should he ever return, will be pleased with your adaciousness.

We'll just call it a misuse of my Papal authority and leave it at that.

Just a note - the 'Author' or that entry is properly Robert Anton Wilson
http://rawilson.com/main.html
as the whole thing appears to be a verbatim excerpt from one of his books.

The 'Principia Discordia' however
http://www.junkpile.demon.co.uk/principia.htm
is explicitly 'copylefted' and exhorts you to reproduce it as many times in whatever media you see fit...

I've been around. I just missed the validation of my entry by a day or two. I've been poking around, but haven't had the time to write, and since it took them so long to approve my entry, I was begining to wonder if it would ever get there. Hopefully I'll be able to write more soon. I have a few ideas for articles, but no time to write...

The only bits that are quoted are explicitly marked as being so. All of the quotes are from the _Pricipia_Discordia_. By the late Kerry Thornley and Greg Hill. Which as you note is copylefted, all rights reversed.

I think the only appropriate response is, "Neener, neener, neener!"

Take advantage of Papal Infallability while you can!

Rev 'id'

I'm sorry, to remove the ambiguity from that, it should read, "...by Greg Hill and the late Kerry Thornley." Greg Hill is very much alive and kicking.

However Screaming Jay Hawkings is dead. The beloved singer of "Constipation Blues" will be missed. I recomend _Black_Music_for_White_People for some good listening. Oh, ah.
