\nSubject: Recycle your documents and help save the judiciary<\/p>\nGreetings –<\/p>\n
For IP if you wish.\u00c2\u00a0 Public.Resource.Org and Creative Commons are pleased to announce a new site that allows users to recycle PACER documents:<\/p>\n
http:\/\/pacer.resource.org\/<\/p>\n
PACER is the system that the U.S. Courts use to distribute opionions, briefs, and other documents at $0.08\/page.\u00c2\u00a0 The system rakes in so much money there is $146.6 million they don’t know what to do with.<\/p>\n
Rather than waste all these documents and help contribute to the rhetorical warming of the Internet, pacer.resource.org lets users upload their used PACER docs for recycling.<\/p>\n
And, since recycling may not be conducive to your lifestyle but you support the idea of saving, we offer a program of digital offsets so you can become a net neutral (sorry Dave) contributor to the public domain.<\/p>\n
