As far as BT and L. Labs? I don't quite understand how folks come to the conclusion that something happening within L. Labs is connected with BT. L. Labs is where JL now works. (He has living expenses as do the rest of us ). It's in the educational outreach area he works; I'm sure his job description spells it out far better than I have paraphrased, though.

As many in SL know, I've utilized much of my time (and creative abilities in SL) to raise donations for BT and also for Brigadoon. Do I think John "owes" me anything? No. Why so not? He offered an avenue that led me to deeper self-discovery. I know, not all feel or think as I do. That's okay too.

What's difficult for me is reading comments by people discussing SL whom are not members, and somehow wanting to link BT's down time to a situation that L. Labs has been honest about with its own members. Security - via SL - was compromised, and ... L. Labs got on it right away and took measures to seal off "holes" and advised its members of steps to also take. There is nothing nefarious about it.

It saddens me to think that there are members of BT whom might envision that others (also members) haven't taken efforts to "earn our keep" within SL as well.
