Oppose the Orphan Works Legislation

On behalf of my brother who is in the medical illustration field:

"I don't know how many of you have heard of or been following the Orphan Works legislation, but it is a matter of grave concern to everyone on the visual & creative arts community. It pretty much amounts to highway robbery of your copyright to any creative work you do. Anyway, the bill is sailing through the subcommittee pretty much without any opposition. If you care, and have a moment, write your congressional reps. There is a letter all ready to go at this link.

Many of the letters are editable, if you have other feeling or comments that you wish to include. All you have to do is fill in your name & address, and when you click 'send', it automatically fires an e-mail to your reps & senators. Pretty slick, and we'd appreciate the support."
