Best present ever

LOOK AT THIS AND REJOICE WITH ME IN FRENZIED ALL-CAPS:



This is the copy of "In Memoriam" that Crocky was allowed to use as the "old book" read by Mr Hardcastle in their initial scene in the play. The owner gave it to her, and she gave it to me.
It's a really beautiful little book, bound in green leather that's turning brown around the edges, with that leaf pattern burnt into it and almost faded gold leaf at the top, and, to my great pleasure, a handwritten dedication from someone who gave this book to a "Stella" as a present.

"We are Anonymous. We are legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget."

How scary is that?
Apparently a group of individuals (their blog)has been planning a protest against Scientology and fighting them online for ... maybe two weeks now, I'm not sure when it started, but I'm probably late as usual. The group - Anonymous - is planning a world-wide protest in front of Scientology churches on the 10th of February.

The Tom Cruise video that prompted all this:

"Knowledge is free. We are Anonymous. We are legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us."

And No. 2:

"We want you to be aware of the very real dangers of Scientology. We want you to know about the gross human rights violations committed by this cult. We want you to know about Lisa McPhearson."

And, in case you think about going, this is the code of conduct:

Oh, and a video No.3

Whoa. This is so... Matrixy.
I kind of want to go to see what happens on the 10th.
Oh, also, they actually seem to have been able to access data from the Scientology servers. o.O
Here is a German article with a link list, and here's a German report on RTL.

Oh, here's a world map listing all the events. o.O
