It was either post it, or participate in the online strike today, have you visited www.en.wikipedia.org - many other sites are doing this today. I considered putting up a similar redirect for NEJ as well. But this might get your attention just as well.

Please take a few minutes and learn about SOPA and PIPA. Sign the petitions to Stop these.

Please click the links and learn about it. I can not tell you what to do. But I took every action I have found to stop this.

Thanks for your time, and sorry for the scare tactic.

IF YOU DONT LIKE IT, DONT WAIT, DO IT NOW, OR IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE!

(And yes, SOPA could close down NEJ websites - and there is nothing we could do about it.)

*** I WANT TO ADD: I made this post on my own accord, in no way does it express the views of New England Jeepz (NEJ) or its members or board of directors. I stickied it because I can - as it is something I am deeply passionate about. I will unsticky if one person simply asks me too. I understand this might be considered as taking advantage of my position and I am fine with that.

I need to know more about this; "censor the Web and impose harmful regulations on American business"
do you have an example?

Google search Bob - Internet explains it best of course.

That site is on strike today, so best to try and read it tomorrow.

Basically, do you want our government controlling the internet? You see how well they do with other programs..... scary thought eh!?

[Mitch]

Here Bob - and everyone else - really pay attention to this, it will show you how fast a site (yes, even NEJ) can be shut down.
