Therapy breakthrough makes the case for Save the Orphans copyright reform

UPDATE: Props to Network World for linking to my story. To NWW readers: Read on for a sad postscript. My latest feature for NurseWeek concerns an innovative program that immerses cancer patients into "virtual worlds" while receiving chemotherapy, to lessen their pain and discomfort during the procedures. It's also a textbook example of why Lawrence Lessig's "Save the Orphans" campaign, which could allow copying of abandoned software titles, is so important, since one of the therapeutic programs discussed in my feature is out of print.
