 gnujoshua writes *"In his blog, SJ Klein, director of community content for
OLPC, notes a collaboration<http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/sj/2008/02/14/olpc-bookdrive-and-hackathon/>among
Creative Commons, One Laptop per Child, and
TextbookRevolution.org <http://textbookrevolution.org/>. They are compiling
together free and CC-licensed works — and they are asking for people to help
them by submitting links to free books, movies, and music. Creative Commons
will be burning a LiveDVD
<http://wiki.creativecommons.org/LiveContent_2.0>to be distributed at
South by Southwest; OLPC will be making bundles of
books to send all over the world; and Textbook Revolution will be compiling
a list of good and free college-level textbooks for the relaunch of their
site."*

Umbrella Corporation :-
"They are the fear within all of that there is a company. The Corporation
controlling everything that is Umbrella.
A combination of Microsoft and the US Military. At some level there is a
board of directors who meet once a
month and decide all of our fates."
-- Jeremy Bolt - Producer - Resident Evil : Apocalypse
