Different in a good way or a bad way, ita?
In a good way, and it's kind of freaking me out. I didn't realise it needed improving, but I guess it did. However, the changes could be undone, and I have no idea what the atmosphere would be like then.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sign me up for Fiji. Prior job, assistant and I kept threatening, well, to each other, to pack it in and go sell smoothies in Fiji. I don't remember how the smoothies got into the plan.

Because books.
Selling smoothies is a plan.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My plan is usually to run away and join the circus, but that might be too much work.
It may be replaced with "go on an around-the-world cruise." Seriously, if I could dump everything right now and do it, I totally would.

And we could build a cool shelter like in The Blue Lagoon!
No?

Fiji sounds good to me. My office is so nutso right now.
Among other things, I heard about a rather shocking firing last night and then realized that the only person I chew over work stuff like that with was the person who told me. Stymied!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The documents are part of the shared heritage of all mankind, and are rightfully in the public domain, but they are not available freely. Instead the articles are available at $19 each--for one month's viewing, by one person, on one computer. It's a steal. From you.
The link won't load for me, so it's possible this is taken out of context, but this seems to represent a rather profound misunderstanding of the public domain. PD does not mean anyone is obligated to provide it to the public. It just means copying it isn't stealing.
(Every now and then my department gets asked for Universal Newsreel footage. And we charge full price for it because being PD doesn't mean it costs us any less in manpower to provide to the client.)
