I suspected that this was what you meant. Well, if it's released to the masses, there would be nothing they could do, other than try to discredit it if they could. Mankind is more enlightened these days, with the internet people are more aware of what goes on and that there are higher authorities who control everything. It's not a weird concept, after all we are controlled by governments and laws, people should therefore be prepared to believe that secretive groups hiding information from the general public. I think the idea that mass hysteria would breakdown society is something that shows they do not believe the average person has the intelligence to grasp a situation without becoming unhinged.

Is there a way of instantly disseminating the information? Do you know any computer expert that could make tracks untraceable to you? Or another method of dissemination?

Not that I know of.. there is a software called Evernote that is interesting though. It's a free online location for storing your personal notes. You can clip things from the web and put links PDFs etc. I have wondered if there was a way to allow others to access this as a information dump but I am unsure if that would work. There is a data limit for syncing.

What I am thinking though is that if I release it as a comic book in chapters maybe I can fly under the radar. long enough to get it out there where influential people can get access to it and spread the news.

PS have you seen this website (might be useful to you): http://www.spaceandmotion.com/

word. (meaning, that sounds lovely)

I'm NOT playing your little game of guess my big discovery.

Cough it up or knock it off!! !

I know it must seem like that but that's not the case. As I said, I will tell someone if I feel certain that they can help me and they can be fully trusted. But please no one be offended by "not meeting my criteria" I don't yet know what that criteria is... I am looking for input on that.

If people can help me do this this info will come out immediately.. IF people had helped me in the past when I tried to get help this info would be out already..

But that is the key.. the reason people don't help is because anyone who talks about these subjects is considered a nut. There is a reason this info hasn't been discovered to this point. Things happened in such a way that allowed me to look at this subject matter with a completely open mind... much more than that actually because I knew that there had to be some element of truth to it... how do I convince others of this though? The reason I changed my attitude was because I fully trust that what my family member told me was true.. but other people have no way of knowing this...

This is why it's so difficult to find someone to help.. and it might be too much for one person to deal with.

The reason people don't help is that you haven't requested any kind of specific help. If you say you don't even know what the criteria for acceptable helpers are, how can you select people to help you? A few people in here have already offered their help and/or support. How exactly, specifically can they help you? You have decided to present your ideas as a comics book - now think about what kind of help you need in order to actually make the book. If you don't get more specific and don't start sharing your ideas with at least some people, there's no way this is going to progress...

I did explain what help I need though.. I need help related to writing a research book..

I need help dealing with copyright issues when using other people's sources - books and videos and relaying the info they did. Someone said facts can't be copyrighted.. can I simply go through the material I am using and highlight all the facts and reword the sentences of these facts and put that in my book? Maybe someone could go into this process more.

I need help telling a story in which I will be showing people in society and how they relate to these issues.. this is problematic because they could sue me.

Supposedly you can write a "Roman a clef" like that movie Primary Colors where they made a book and movie about the Clintons but did it as if they were different people.

Mine is trickier though because I need to show real people and real events.. if not then people may not understand what I am trying to say.

This is the problem though.. how do I get the help I need with all the difficult issues I face in this? what would you do if you needed help but needed to keep this secret?

How do I convince people this is real and get interest without giving it away..

I have done that the best I know how to this point...

I guess the problem is that I am great at taking information in... but I have a very difficult time getting information out.. putting it in a form people can understand.


How can I deal with this issue? Can I get help?

Is there someone I can go to for help? What I was hoping is that maybe I could find an Aspie here who is a journalist or documentary filmmaker or someone who knows someone who knows the plight of Aspies and AS people who wouldn't discount me because I am not like the norm and not from within that accepted society so to speak.

It's a catch 22 though.. if I was a part of normal society I doubt I would have found this.. but because I am not in accepted circles no one will take me seriously.

why don't you post with something in the header about seeking Aspie journalist/lawyer/author etc.?

Ok, I will try that Whirlingmind. Thanks.

...just realised, I've sent you back to square one...that's what you already had done. But perhaps a new post with something additional but more specific in the title, if it fits?

(this thread has become pretty long so I kinda forgot to look back at the heading!)

I just change on your suggestion.. do you think I should start a new thread? I think it will work ok just editing it. we'll see how it goes.

Yes, maybe if amending the current header doesn't bring any new replies, you could then start afresh with a new one.

I'm in law school. I must emphasize, I am not a lawyer. Even if I were a lawyer, I wouldn't be your lawyer. We are not in an attorney-client relationship. This is not legal advice. If you rely on anything I tell you, it is be at your own risk.

That said, it's well-established that you cannot copyright facts or ideas, only the expression of those facts or ideas. Look up Baker v. Selden, 101 U.S. 99 (1879).
Facts are not protected by copyright, but an original compilation of facts is; so if you want to use somebody else's facts, you need to express them your own way. A.A. Hoehling v. Universal City Studios, Inc., 449 U.S. 841 (1980).

So really, the legal issues depend on the specific facts of what you want to do. If you want real advice, go talk to a real lawyer.



I'm not touching this one with a ten foot pole. Ask a real lawyer.



You've just rediscovered Arrow's Information Paradox. Congratulations.

Dan_Vincze, thank you for the response. I will look into that case you mentioned. regarding copyright and facts.

IF anyone knows of any guides that go in depth on this process of repackaging information please let me know.

Also, people don't need to worry about getting sued for giving me advice. I understand at this stage everything is "do at your own risk" and I will try to get feedback on these legal issues when the writing aspect is more complete and then I can edit out or change things that may put me in danger.

Also, the reason I need to copyright this is because if I don''t copyright it then someone else may do this and prevent me from being allowed to disseminate my own information! This would be an easy way of suppressing it. Just like suing me for naming people could allow them to suppress it.
