Reading Steal This Book online, I came across some interesting information.

A true geek would do this- "You can get $150 to $600 in advance by willing your body to a University medical school. They have you sign a lot of papers and put a tattoo on your foot."

Others would continue the trend and do this- "You can get the tattoo removed and sell your body to the folks across the street. The universities can be ripped off by enrolling, applying for a loan and bugging out after the loan comes through. This is a lot easier than you might imagine and you can hit them for up to $2,500 with a good enough story."

I read Abbie Hoffman's "Steal This Book" back in the early seventies when it was supposedly still germaine to that ever popular notion that it was our duty to "overthrow the man". (And yes, I stole it.) The process of donating one's body to science is probably a lot better monitored now. I suppose putting epoxy glue into parking meters would still be a "blow against the empire", and all, but they'd replace them and bill it to Joe Taxpayer. I.E: You.

Revolution isn't as easy as it used to be when it was funded by daddy's money and Marx's ideals.

I actualy find the whole notion that using spun pennies and lying to obtain whatever you feel you need is "striking a blow against the empire of amerika" very funny indeed.
Diagram that sentance.

It seems to be like what hacking trys to be. I once found a method to hack a pepsi machine off kazza, but it was too time consuming and required too much work on the machine before you could actualy do it. You had to like drill a hole 1 1/2 down the coin slot about a millimeter wide and put a paper clip in just right to short the circut etc etc.

Okay Nate, time to (yet again) pick apart your utter gullibility and stupidity.

1) considering the amount of people who die far from home, in unidentifiable condition, or in a state where the body is undissectable (plane crash, fire, etc), doesn't this seem fairly far-fetched? I dunno what college you intend to go to, but most of the ones I've been affiliated with don't have hundreds of dollars to give to hippies against the off chance that they'll die soon and nearby.

2) tattoo removal in 2002 is still less than perfect- a scar or dark patch often remains. in the 70's, tattoo removal was not done with lasers or chemicals but with knives or skin grafts, which, aside from leaving your foot a mess, would cost well over the supposed sum you got from the med school.

3) Abbie Hoffman was a trickster. believe less than half of anything he says as "truth". If abbie had said, "my friend bill wirthling of kenosha wisconsin has a tattoo on his foot from selling his body to science" and included a pic, maybe I'd believe it. "steal this book" was probably written for wannabes- real revolutionaries and scam artists don't need a mass market paperback to tell them how to fuck the man.

4) ask a doctor how many cadavers he saw in med school. now ask him how many had tats from the med school on their feet. None? gee, what a surprise.

5)medical schools don't pay for bodies- they get them from charity hospitals, unclaimed indigents, and family members who donate the bodies of relatives. I donated my dead father, who donated his dead father.

6) you would be less annoying if you thought for at least ten minutes before you posted.

I read it as part of something online- I wasn't saying EVERYBODY SHOULD GO DO THIS BECAUSE I THINK IT"L WORK!!!

Sometimes you shouldn't take everything for its face value- The reason I was posting that was because it sounded funny +interesting+ stupid. That's the entire point of this thread. You wanna take one of spanklings stupid links and tell him he's a retard because he shouldn't go around posting what wouldn't work anyway?

Thank you for completely clarifying the obvious that I had no qualm against.

Yeah, Abbie pretty much was a smirky bullshit artist. He actually did give a shit about about stuff like immoral wars, rampant environmental abuse and the dis-enfranchisment of blacks and allat, but he mostly liked to be the center of attention. His whole shtick was one of the most problematic aspects of the "revolution" in the 60's. Way too many people who, ostensibly, were trying to give "power to the people" were a bunch of clueless twats who liked to break shit that they didn't have to pay for and get stoned and high five each other. Pretty lame. And here we are in the new millennium, up to our hoo hoos in governmental abuse, questionable wars, people sleeping in the streets, etcetera. The revolution is dead, long live the revolution.

What the Cat Dragged In

Member Rated:

Yep, it's true - a friend told me about it on Friday. He had tested it, and it worked. He is one of those "collateral damage" types - he is a hifi nut, and has the top line of everything. As a result his very advanced stereo and very advanced car stereo will not play these protected CDs. He discovered that you don't even have to scribble over the whole track - a straight black line, drawn against a ruler, that passes through all of the protection track is enough. The CD player sees it as being damaged, and skips over it.

What I don't understand is how these companies are getting away with marketing CDs which cause damage to people's expensive electronic property. Surely this is illegal? I mean, it is deliberate damage. These days, companies are being sued when idiots use their products incorrectly - this shit fucks up your equipment when used _correctly_, and it is a deliberate act! Let the class action commence...

"The Music of the Fast and The Furious" was one of the first CD's to be protected in such a way that it was harmful and/or would not play in certain stereos and computers. In fact Roger Ebert wrote a whole article about it in a recent Yahoo Internet Life magazine. Basically it goes over what is true; you shouldn't treat customers like criminals, and to release something that acts that way is akin to the history of DivX. Mp3 file sharing in some ways is not that much different from the sampling that kids did back years ago. You listen to the tracks and songs, and if you really love it, you plop down the 20$(which is overcharged anyway in my opinion) for the CD.
