FC: Jack Valenti will speak today (Tuesday) at Georgetown law school

[Declan McCullagh <declan () well com>]

[Jack Valenti kicked off his 2003 Morality Tour at Duke University law 
school yesterday. The buzz when I was at the law school there last week is 
that he got a nice, circa $20K speaking fee. Not bad for an hour's worth of 
public relations on behalf of his employer. Wonder if anyone asked him 
about the morality of forcibly implanting copy protection technology in all 
electronic devices at the behest of one industry group? Anyway, the speech

Hi Declan,

I realize this is short notice, but thought DC-area Politech readers might 
be interested.  Jack Valenti is speaking about copy protection at the 
Georgetown Law School tomorrow afternoon at 3:30.

For anyone not familiar with the area, the Law School is at 2nd and F NW, 
not on the main Georgetown campus.  It's between the Union Station and 
Judiciary Sq. metro stops.

Should be a good time.  ;-)
