If you offer a monkey 3 acorns in the morning, and 4 more in the afternoon, there will be great protest and pleanty of howling.  Yet if you offer the same monkey 4 acorns in the morning, and 3 if the afternoon, he will be content and happy.  Heaven knows no distinction, it knows nothing of monkeys of acorns or even oneself.  For heaven itself is without form, and only one who accepts that his body or self is no more special or different than any other thing that exists in the world can get close to it.

So to deny self and act in harmony with the world is to gain the favor of heaven.  To act for oneself is to invariably lose the favor of heaven and leave oneself at the mercy of the forces of the world.  This is why wise men seldom act in ways that can be seen, for an act that is in perfect harmony with the world will not be evident at all.

Seriously do you keep up with the pigcasts at all?  The pig had a 'town hall' style meeting last Tuesday and no one even mentioned Shion.  More than half the questions asked by the audience had to do with Tuan Tuan.  If anyone was even the slightest bit apprehensive or angry about Shion they were certainly keeping it to themselves.

My point is that, it's not like there is a super-secretive and isolated, arrogant group known as the 'live-evil central comittee' that consists of a pig, a giant panda, and a number of men dressed in black to do the dirty work, gaurded heavily by secret service and meeting every tenth day in a secret undisclosed underground location to discuss top matters of import like how the fans can be screwed over next or how we can prolong the release of Shion another year or so.  The reality here is that the process is perfectly transparent, members of the public are perfectly free to keep up with the daily going's on in the ways already noted -- you can listen to the pigcasts, call the pig over Skype, or attend one of our friendly townhalls in person. 

do you think that through repetition people will forget their original question because as i see it all you're doing is wasting your time.

thanks for the release.

does that mean it got abandoned as a fansub? or is it just private matters preventing the completion of it? i could always read the manga, but i'll hold out if i think it's gonna be finished.


by pig you mean a nameless corporate conglomerate?
