The systems of the past are done. Copyright is obsolete and a hindrance to the advancement of our culture.

Any blocks encountered in this search for knowledge and information must be demolished so that the path may be cleared for yourself, and others who follow.

270,000 books are published in the US *every year* despite copyright's allegedly pernicious effect. Somehow I don't see the production of knowledge suffering.
