Years ago in some random part of the USA, some politicians, for some
reason, wanted to get rid of an "estate tax." That is, the tax on a
person's estate after they've passed on. They tried for years, but
they couldn't get people to vote on it.

They hired a professional, who knows how to tell people what they
want. He said, "What in the world are you DOING? Call it a Death Tax!"

The votes rolled in, and the politicians got what they wanted.

Let this be a lesson to us. Saying you want to "expand into popular
social networks" and create a "browser-based virtual world experience"
may not mean to everyone what you think it means.

Taxing my estate seems logical. Taxing my death seems cruel.

Making SL available to more people seems logical. Making SL a watered
down, incompatible experience seems cruel.

LL has a reputation for good intentions. But, no offense, anyone here
would agree that it also has a reputation for results that may not end
up roses. Especially lately, the drive that pushes forward seems to be
... off.

Would someone who has any idea what these vague potentially dangerous
words in this press release actually mean please help poor dear Lance
and me?

Many thanks,

Stickman
