On Saturdays I post stuff from SciFi.com and I review old books I've read when I was young (1970s serialized novels). I also linked to the World Transhumanist Organization and I am also a transhuman. If interested please contact me at my email address, or post a comment on my site. Regards, dad2059 Dear Gentlebeings;

I have ctrl-c and then ctrl-v a lot of the fiction available (and gone through a good chunk of the background inormation) and the most pressing sggestion I can make is to stop making the copy/paste ritual so integral to viewing the OA material in any offline context. I have a zaurus that I use for my offline reading and I would vastly prefer a plain text download option for reading the various e-books than the system I've worked out for myself. It has even been a roblem keeping the whole text (keeping the title and the author's name intact in the file without requiring extra typing). Plase, if you want greater exposure, make it easy to do so. Also, I cant help but feel "dirty" using a kludge like notepad to transfer the material from the net to my PDA, I believe I have satisfied the CC license but it would be easier and morally more desireable to have access to an approved .txt in the first place. Keep up the grat work in any case, and I hope to contribute myself once I have a comfortable grounding in the Arm. I would absolutely love to spread more word of Orion’s Arm around.
