The Vatican's chief exorcist(!) is afraid of the effect of Harry Potter [via]. Surely, this will be one of the most quoted lines in the blogosphere in short order: "There is no doubt that the signature of the Prince of Darkness is clearly within these books."

You can call Harry satanic, but you can't call him a superhero [via] if Marvel and DC get their trademark approved. Doctorow is right: this is an abomination of intellectual property law if it's approved. Hey: let's all file for trademarks on our blog names, and sue the bejeezus out of any company that uses the same words we do, until they reform the law....
