I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Jimmy Wales, a guy with a shining pardigm, set up Wikipedia as a free source of knowledge for everyone

"Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet has free access to the sum of all human knowledge"

Indeed. Knowledge is power. And knowledge has often been fenced by and appropriated with money.

If you use Wikipedia like I do, here's your chance to give back to the group which gave to you.

Done.

I'm heart-warmed to see some of my fellow Browncoats giving back in the name of freedom.
