GNU-Darwin Action: Molecules activism revisited

For those who are following the activism aspect of the Molecules site, I thought that you might
be interested in a little pre-history as it were. Prior to the founding of the Molecules site,
the activism first hatched under the GNU-Darwin umbrella, and the fundamental idea of molecules
activism was invented. Initially, it was concerned primarily
with resveratrol and other caloric restriction memetics, but it was clearly bound to expand
from there. You can read some of the early material in the
GNU-Darwin Posts regarding resveratrol and calorie restriction.
As was previously mentioned, the ideas were formally developed in the
FOSS, Science, and Public activism
essay, and it was even put forth as a war protest in the so-called
bootstrapping essay.
As the Molecules site developed, it became clear that additional adjunct activities
were required in order to push the activism harder. One of these adjuncts was created on the Vitacost
website, where it is
easy to provide directed links
to crucial molecules for those who want to
obtain them for themselves. Moreover, the activism ideas continue to evolve there in blog format. Check it out:
