SCO Legally Assaults PJ of Groklaw
Litigious Bastards writes "SCO has just filed court papers saying that they were unable to subpoena PJ of Groklaw. While they apparently sent their crack team of process servers out looking for random people named Pamela Jones, it would appear that they were unable to locate the bright yellow envelope labeled 'Email PJ' on the Groklaw website to ask for directions to serve her in person. They're once again accusing her of working for IBM or Novell, and Groklaw is now hosting over 20 documents PJ claims were planted in the media in an effort to discredit her. As she says, 'And so the stupidest lawsuit in the history of the world just got stupider. And a whole lot meaner.'"
I wasn't aware of the fact that assault was legal in the US.

... that they're also looking for an elusive character to subpoena, his name is "Honest Truth".

You named SCO? I heard you're giving a friend of mine, PJ, some problems. Let's talk.

Her server is withstanding the Slashdotting pretty well.
This proves "she" must really be IBM. (Joke.)
Seriously, I hope someday, somebody can write a short (one page) clear and simple
document explaining who owns the various *nix names and code.
I'd like this short document to be sued and win so make it "proven".
Email SCO with your message " I AM P.J!"

SCO's CEO has made a point of telling the press that he carries a gun. So he's got lawyers and guns, but he's running out of money.

IANAL (I do have most of a Paralegal degree, sans only Ethics.)
I gather that the difference between a Paralegal degree and a Lawyer one is that there isn't an Ethics course in the latter.
Because it has been a business plot from the beginning:

Why don't we just send Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner after him?

Thanks slashdot; you crashed groklaw.
Personally, I'm hoping for a new verb, like "SCOpuku" (from 'seppuku') or at least "SCOicide". To wit:
SCOpuku: Destroying one's company by launching frivolous legal action against Open Source developers and/or companies. See SCO.
PHEM - party like it's 1997-2003!
I think if I ever run into Darl I'll run up to him and be like "Hey, Mr. McBride? Can I get an autograph..." "Thanks! Now I just have to get the Enron guys and I'll have the whole set!
With SCO it has always been about tricks and delay.
Dang! Now I see!
Darl McBride is *actually* Kim Jong Ill!
SCO is the USA shell corporation for NoKo!
It all makes sense now...

SCO's filing makes it quite clear that PJ works for IBM, and has been dodging their subpoena like so many Bill Clintons during the Nam war.

You will see *numerous links to all sorts of blogs that reinforce SCO's theory about her. This, obviously, is damning evidence. Also, for about eleven minutes on August 6, 2006, the Wikipedia article on PJ clearly stated that she was an undercover IBM agent and a "$£77¥ h0!!!!"
My turnips listen for the soft cry of your love
First they sued the companies their code came from. Then they sued their paying users. Now they're suing those who are discussing their suits. Next they will sue the world. Mwahahahahaha!
