“ Love is when you can be your true self with someone, and you only want to be your true self because of them.”
Patient 13 follows Scott King – scientist, entrepreneur and Type 1 diabetic – at the climax of his 30-year quest to cure diabetes. Working with a team of world-renowned scientists, Scott is battling the odds to bring one of the most dramatic medical discoveries in history to human trial – even if it means experimenting on himself. Will the scientists be Nobel Prize winners or failed visionaries? If Scott succeeds, not only will he cure Type 1 diabetes, he will cure himself.
Yesterday we did a historic thing. We generated 87,834 phone calls to U.S. Representatives in a concerted effort to protect the Internet. Extraordinary. There’s no doubt that we’ve been heard.
So just to keep you updated: The well-intentioned, but immensely flawed “Stop Online Piracy Act” is still in the House Judiciary Committee. The hearing was yesterday and now members will debate and bring amendments to the bill. The Committee will reconvene in a few weeks — the date has yet to be scheduled. Nothing has been brought to a final vote. Everything is still very much in play. We’ll keep you posted on what’s going on and what you can do to help. But for now, we want to thank you.
One encouraging thing we heard yesterday:
I don’t believe this bill has any chance on the House floor. I think it’s way too extreme, it infringes on too many areas that our leadership will know is simply too dangerous to do in its current form.
— Representative Darrell Issa
We also want to express our tremendous gratitude to our friends at Mobile Commons who, on 30 minutes notice, hooked us up with their amazing platform (and provided their expertise) to automatically connect callers with their Representatives.
