RA Salvatore: I stand with the protestors in Wisconsin
So I made a little statement on my Facebook Page: "I stand with the protesters in Wisconsin." -- And started a firestorm...

in truth, I really can't believe that I went to a Facebook fan page and let fly on Wisconsin, even in such a minimalist way. That tells me something about how strongly I feel that THIS fight in Wisconsin is a pivotal battle in the future of America. Personally, I believe that an America where the middle class can't afford their health care, their college education, their retirement, even their homes, is an America doomed.

A couple of posters have already said they won't read my books anymore...oh well.

4. John Kovalic of Munchkin and Dork Tower fame has also been very outspoken for WI
The geek community has been very supportive. Makes me proud to be a nerd :)
