Um, did something happen to the Top Webcomics vote link? I can’t seem to find it now.

a quick heads up on the blackout to save some hassle afterwards: http://www.stateofsearch.com/participating-in-the-sopa-black-out-dont-forget-to-seo/ I’m glad to see you are taking a stand and though I work in tech support and am not exactly looking forward to all the calls I’m about to get… I would do the same for any webpages I had (if they got any kind of traffic).

SOPA isn’t going to go away – the House Judiciary Chair Lamar Smith intends to move ahead with it next month. And PIPA will probably be waiting for it in the Senate.

Lots of big players have paid good money for this, and they want what they paid for!

Constant vigilance!

I think jay’s referring to niviene’s pool that she used to look, not the lake on earth.

Scott, please remember to make your page tomorrow reference both SOPA and PIPA.

Interesting. So this is how Merlin first became aware of Dreamland.

I wonder how his staff ended up in Dreamland?

Ah hah! Merlin’s first inkling of Dreamland. Fascinating!

I don’t see the blackout as political, just trying to protect the Net as we know it.

The lake’s not moving up, the grass moved down! (On previous pages, one can see that there is a portion of dirt without grass, along the edge of the lake, whereas there is no such border, this time.)

Having said that, I am also amazed that Merlin has not fallen in the lake, yet, as the angle seen on previous pages is rather steep… (It doesn’t look quite as steep, today…)

The lake in the 1st pic seems “elevated”, like “ascending” from were Merlin is standing.
I don’t know… maybe my eyes playing games…

Concerning the “black out” issue:
I agree with your move because I support the freedom of speech and the free circulstion of ideas.
It is what one of the cornerstones of the so called “western civilization” as we know after the Renaissance and the Enlightenment.
One curious thing: in greek language “SOPA” means “shut up” or “stop talking” and “PIPA” ehm..well it is hard to write about sexual actions in an internet site hosting a story for all ages!
I just see it a very peculiar coincidence…
