I guess it's time to reveal the incredibly kind invitation I received[1]. As
|
|
many of you may have found out or guessed, I will be attending oral argument
|
|
for the Eldred case[2] before the Supreme Court.
|
|
|
|
I'm incredibly excited, as you might imagine. Visiting the Supreme Court would
|
|
be quite enough, but seeing such an important case...Dayenu! When Lessig asked
|
|
me if I was free that day to come, I laughed because I couldn't (and still
|
|
can't) think of anything I'd rather do than attend. I am eternally grateful to
|
|
Lessig for the chance to attend. On the other hand, I'm sort of embarassed to
|
|
have the opportunity, when there are surely others who deserve it far more than
|
|
me. Luckily, it seems that such deserving others will be able to get seats by
|
|
camping in line with us.
|
|
|
|
So, I'll be arriving in D.C. on Tuesday, attending an
|
|
Eldred/Duke/EPIC/Bookmobile superparty, and then camping in line with Seth
|
|
Schoen[3], Lisa Rein, Jace Cooke but unfortunately not Cory Doctorow. If you'd
|
|
like to come with us, let me know.
|
|
|
|
I was hoping I'd be able to take notes and post them to my weblog for those who
|
|
couldn't make it, but as I read in today's Times, only lawyers and those with
|
|
official press credentials are allowed to take notes![4] I think this is
|
|
outrageous, but hopefully I will be able to remember enough to provide an
|
|
interesting account.
|
|
|
|
In a related irony, today was "Disney Day" at Borders[5], where they played
|
|
Disney rock songs with the volume turned up too loud, disturbing my usual habit
|
|
of reading a book there. However, I did manage to skim through _The Practice of
|
|
Programming_.
|
|
|
|
In an unrelated note, if you haven't been electrocuted by a Model T spark plug,
|
|
I highly recommend it.
