Can't just lock it.

I genuinely want to know what happens. I think there are some hints that the ideas jon is developing through PP are actually quite interesting ones.

So what do we do?

Ask jon to post the script as it stands? That sucks as my imagination has been ruined.

Wait patiently? Yes! because waiting patiently is actually a clever way of saying do nothing, which is always the easiest option anyway...

In Response to tor (#13277):

It's not the waiting patiently that I mind.

It's seeing the Poopsmith mark thread "Snow Crash: The Movie" thread as unread every few weeks, because they want to mention that OMG wouldn't it be great if that one guy from American Idol were to be cast as Uncle Enzo's sidekick #12.

Plus, I really think we all need to reach some closure, and move on with our lives from Patent Pending. Jon has repeatedly said he'd love to keep doing it, if he could find a way to get money for it. But there isn't a big enough fan base for it to make money.

I bet that the Future Monkey shirts are the worst selling item Jon has ever had. I wouldn't be surprised if he sold less than 20 of them.
