• 07:43:52: Ricky Gervais is on CNN for being one of Time's most influential men. I've never watched #theoffice, US or UK.
  
• 18:26:09: Interesting assertion from a commenter in the fanfiction kerfluffle I LJed about: Copyright infringement is determined case-by case. (more)
  
• 18:27:38: If infringement is determined case-by-case, isn't then a broad, blanket statement like "Fanfiction infringes on copyright" a semantic null?
  
• 18:28:22: Is not, therefore, any given instance of fanfiction presumed innocent of infringement until proven guilty?
  
• 18:31:18: Some commenters over there claim (in so many words) there's case law showing fanfiction is fair use. I'd like to see citations.
  
• 18:34:02: Any citations I've seen have dealt more with music sampling; while relating to derivative work generally, don't to fanfiction specifically.
  
• 21:53:36: I will read fandomsecrets and then I will draw tomorrow's AKOTAS.
  
• 23:15:52: #AKOTAS updated: mending fences. http://tinyurl.com/akotas/2178.htm #webcomics #kingarthur
