*rover got it typed!*

*it only took him all morning.*

*he was pleased.*

*rover rolled in to Journalism class.*

*he rolled over the desk and a stack of papers appeared on the end of it.*

*and he stood at attention in front of the class.*

*looking quite natty in his homecoming suit.*

*when a student picks up a paper from the stack, they will read the following:*

Professor JeTrusAalem Jhas be4en deE4layUed. HWe asWked I waZtch th4e cl;ass.

Th4e to0pic iIs per hiIs instr4ucti0ons.

DiscuIssion foPr reaction to censo0rship. Whet4her t0o findf a waAy to ge3t th4e infoTrmation t0o th4e public despiLte th4e consequences or t0o knucLkle under4.

*rover waited quietly.*

*and thought about his box back in his office.*

*maybe he should share his lava lamps with the professor*

*rover suspected it would be a lava lamp kind of day for him.*

Beka nodded, smiling grimly. "Us too. But...do you really have to worry about that? The dead part? We find...other channels. Means of communication. Those who want to know, find out."

George tapped her pen against her front teeth thoughtfully. "I guess there are forms of underground communication, newspapers, whatever," she mused. "But is there any way to prove that you're legit in that case? I mean, how do you get the word out in such a way that people actually believe you?"

"Good question, really." Beka frowned, drumming her fingers on the desk. "Start with little things. Things that people know but aren't hearing through official channels. You probably have to use a cadre of people to spread the word, too. Cell groups, one neighborhood at a time."

George nods. "Not that this is a popular example, but that's how it seems to work for terrorists, too."

((Or the Browncoats. Can't stop the signal, zomg! ...Unless you fall off the charts within two weeks. *sniffle*))

Beka gives her an appraising look. "Freedom-fighters, terrorists. The difference is often in who uses the word."


[ooc: Can't stop the signal! Don't worry. We have a back-up data-center. *kicks stupid people who don't know how awesome Serenity is.]

"True." George replies with a smile. "That's where things can get a little, I don't know, squidgy with this country's friendly Federal Gov't."

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"Squidgy." Beka smiles. "Good word. It's pretty squidgy out there too."
