    I can see it now - "Cert denied". How the hell did this make it to the 9th circuit court of appeals in the first place? If the DMCA is unconstitutional, then what grounds does Rossi have for suing the RIAA for violating it? Maybe it's just PrimeZone Media that has no clue what it's talking about. I'm sure the Slashbots will jump on this though. I mean, the guys going up against the MPAA. He must be right!

    Run-on sentences make baby jesus cry. No punctuation makes baby jesus cry. If you're the president of something, you should at the very least have a competent individual proofread your e-mail, memos, and slashdot posts.
