Vickie Pynchon’s The Blessed Virgin BLAWG REVIEW # 179– EngagingConflicts.com
Comments(0) 
Vickie Pynchon is the most prolific ADR blogger I know, and she writes LOTS more than her main ADR blog, Settle It Now Negotiation Blog. This week, she is hosting Blawg Review #179 at her Intellectual Property ADR Blog.
Here’s her opener:
If intellectual property had a theme song it would have to be “Like a Virgin.”
Why?
Because IP is all about “the very first time,” the “aha” moment, the creative spark that gives rise to previously undreamed imaginings.The restrictions of “how we’ve always done things” fall away and the numbing repetition of days become vibrant. The rest, of course, is work. Trial and error. Success. Failure. Rearranging the disaligned. Completion.
Then the suits arrive. That’s us, the lawyers.
In honor of the moment of creation at the root of every intellectual property dispute, this week’s Blawg Review No. 171 gives you the great virgins of history.
To kick off the “virgin” IP ADR Blawg Review, we’re linking you to Kate Monro’s brilliant and (in)famous blog The Virginity Project and giving you a tantilizing excerpt:

It’s enormously challenging to write a Blawg Review. Bravo, Vickie!
