2000th post by me

[Taltarzac]

This is my 2000th post and I am not even the person with the most time spent on TOTV. https://www.talkofthevillages.com/smf/index.php?action=stats

There are two more people with more time spent on TOTV than I have. Kathie1 and Nonie have higher numbers for time spent on TOTV than I have.

Thanks. I should be bugging librarians all over the world to improve resources for survivors of crimes accessible throught their libraries but found TOTV instead. My work on my massive 17 year international project has tapered off quite a lot over the past year but I am trying to time it along with the 2008 US elections so that maybe the people who take office in 2009 will actually do something about solving this problem instead of the "that's not our role" kind of garbage I have been getting on and off since late 1991. Have had some successes with this but very few for all of the work I have put into this.

Do hope that if it is Senators McCain, Obama, or Clinton who gets elected that he or she will do something with this. President GW Bush did something significant for survivors/victims of child abuse of late http://writ.news.findlaw.com/hamilton/20071227.html and I hope that the candidates see that empowering people who are drawn into the legal system with little or no say in the matter is a very good idea. The Internet and access to it through libraries seems like a way of strengthening victims/survivors hand.

Got a letter from William Jefferson Clinton's Domestic Affairs advisor-- Carol Rasco-- back in 1993 that she had stuck my suggestions back then into the Health Reform Task Force which was run by Hillary Clinton.

Cannot recall any communications I have received back from Senators McCain nor Obama but I cannot remember ever even contacting Senator Obama about any of this. Certainly tried to get Oprah involved in this quite a bit though and have sent some stuff to the University of Chicago Law School/Library where my old reference supervisor for a few years while she was at the U of MN Law Library-- Lyonette Louis Jacques-- now works. http://www.law.uchicago.edu/faculty/louis-jacques


Senator Obama was a part-time Professor of Constitutional Law at the U of Chicago Law School. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama

Had tried to get the various state victim service directories hooked up here at the U of Chicago web-site but no go. http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/e/law/state.html
