The Drama regarding Urban Homesteading

It had to happen eventually, I suppose. Everyone wants to have copyright or trademark over *everything* these days. But a REALLY well-known family in the Urban Homesteading movement were the last people I thought would do this - read about the whole sad, unfolding drama at the LA Blogs and OC Weekly. Read the comments too, they are also very informative. It has a LOT of peoples' danders up, and affects the Urban Homesteading movement as a whole.

Got the story via Reddit, again (thanks Reddit for keeping us in the loop). :)

EDIT: An update, as of Feb 22.
