Blavatsky Collected Writings back online
Great that Ton got these back online!
Also good that TPH granted "permission",
also, although, truth is that the copyrights
are very much in doubt, and no permission
likely necessary at all! (But who can
hire a lawyer on non-profit matters?)
ALL Blavatsky's articles are in public
domain, having been written at least 115+
years ago. The copyright question would
be in regard to Boris's work, not Blavatsky,
etc., etc. 6 volumes were published by
Boris independently before TPH took over.
So it is not to be viewed as a great big
favor by TPH, but at least they decided
the right thing.
ULT Finances - Like Cass said, the
question is that bonafide Theosophical
organizations should be altruistic in
their finances also, beyond the necessity
of just surviving. Its another case of
people self-hypnotizing themselves in
the face of imagined authority, and
not seeing what the real truth is.
Thank goodness at least Chuck is
an only child and not Twins!
