Can't wait to get mine - I'm always proud and more than a little humbled to contribute to all things FQP.

Wish I'd remembered that before I started banging on about MT in another thread...  :-[

Would some of you lovely ink monkeys have a think about having a go at some of the Jikan pages on the Genre for Japan thread? The more original artwork we can get, the more we may make on the auction. Doubling (or even more) up on pages is fine, and we also need a "cover image." Any takers?

Droids especially will make the package more attractive to bidders :)

Deadline: Art must reach me (via snail mail) by March 31st (PM me for my address or with any questions you may have, it's all a bit rushed so what's needed may not be too clear.)

And once more the Wednesday Night Yappage is upon us. If you've never tried it before, or if you haven't been in for a while, why not come along and give it a whirl? (And where's PJ - he started this thread and we never see him any more!)

To join in, simply go to www.paltalk.com and download the chat client (or, if you don't want to do that, you can chat through the Paltalk website itself) and then look for the "Rowdy Yates Block Citizens' Yap Shop which is listed under the category Miscellaneous/Other. Be warned, though, we do sometimes use adult language. (Especially Roger.)

Thanks, Jim :)

Deadline for Jikan: Flood art to reach me: March 31st (a week tomorrow). (Forget the lettering for now, post me the art then I'll scan it and get Jim to do his magic later...)

Still no droids on board yet - I'm sure they're just biding their time 'til they pounce... ;)

An email I got today. Unfortunately, I can't make it but maybe others will be in a better position to take part...

"This Saturday 26th March is the big day for the anti cuts movement, hundreds of thousands of people will March in London for an alternative to the spending cuts. We'll be there representing the One Good Cut campaign, a campaign aiming to get monetary reform onto the anti-cuts agenda as a viable alternative.

Over the next few months we aim to present the arguments for monetary reform to the environmental and anti-poverty lobbies, explaining why banking and finance have an exacerbatiing effect on environmental destruction and poverty at home and abroad, and how taking back control of the money supply offers us a way out of these problems.

Whether you are against the recent spending cuts or not, the past few months have shown that protest in the UK can be successful, the Save the Forests campaign achieving a total U-turn in government policy, the actions of UK Uncut rousing the left and showing signs of small turnarounds in government tax policy.



As you will know if you are receiving this email, the greatest commons resource of all, the money supply, has been privatised and turned from an instrument of value into an instrument of debt. Every single penny of all the money in flow in the UK has been borrowed from a bank, and the banks decide who gets to borrow it, and for what purpose.



The enormous size of the banking sector is sucking the life out of the economy, and the signs are more visible now than ever before. It cannot continue forever, the profits earned from exercising the benefits of their unfathomably profitable subsidy is not sustainable, and the real economy suffers every day as a result.



I feel it is unlikely that banking reform will be achieved purely through lobbying and good ideas, protesting and demonstrating support in public places is bound to play a significant part in this. Whether or not we have a role to play in this as an organisation, many of you receiving this email will. Saturday 26th March is the biggest event of its kind since the Iraq war demonstrations, there will be plenty of opportunity to make ourselves heard, have a good day out, and meet other like minded people at this event.



March with us on the 26th, visit http://www.positivemoney.org.uk tomorrow evening to get prepared and find out how you can put banking reform at the heart of the protest movement.

Kind Regards

Ben Curtis"
