What scares me is that more people are concerned about gays being able to marry, then the gays living through another attack. Yeah, THAT makes sense.

Now you're a lawyer in addition to a saint? Pray tell, describe the effect of a 9th circuit decision on cyberlaw on a 5th circuit court, in the absence of Supreme Court direction? What are the ethical obligations of a lawyer in connection with legal decisions which are not binding, but perhaps instructive, and how about if the parallel court's decision is wrongly reasoned? Do let us know your reasoning process, St. Quidnunc, because I so value your opinion.
Merely stating an uneducated belief does not a fact make.

Colleges and universities have to be very mindful of copyright l;aw because of they have many, many students and professors publishing theses, dissertations and papers.

You have provided this link before, reminding me of the exchange in "A Fish Called Wanda". Otto is very fond of citing Nietzche and other German philosophers. He does something stupid, and Wanda excoriates him.
"Was that smart, Otto? Or was it stupid?"
"Don't call me stupid."
"Right. To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people, you big ape."
Otto smiles knowingly, and softly issues his rejoinder: "Apes don't read philosophy".
"Yes they do, Otto, they just don't understand it".

Yes I have, because it blows the arguments of the post-every-jot-and-tittle crowd completely out of the water.

1970 isn't that long ago. If you're, say, 50, you wear narrower trousers and shorter hair than you used to, but the landscape of your life your house, your car, your kitchen appliances doesn't seem significantly different. I don't know about Steyn, but I am 50 and I most certainly do NOT wear narrower trousers! :-)

I think he's referring to bellbottoms and long hair.

Of the increase in global population between 1970 and 2000, the developed world accounted for under 9% of it, while the Muslim world accounted for 26% of the increase. Between 1970 and 2000, the developed world declined from just under 30% of the world's population to just over 20%; the Muslim nations increased from about 15% to 20%. This is depressing.

And they fear the Muslims less than the Baptists. We Baptists are armed
