ABA Judges Get an Earful About RIAA Litigations

NewYorkCountryLawyer writes "I was afforded the opportunity to write for a slightly different audience — the judges who belong to the Judicial Division of the American Bar Association. I was invited by the The Judges Journal, their quarterly publication, to do a piece on the RIAA litigations for the ABA's Summer 2008 'Equal Access to Justice' issue. What I came up with was 'Large Recording Companies vs. The Defenseless: Some Common Sense Solutions to the Challenges of the RIAA Litigations,' in which I describe the unfairness of these cases and make 15 suggestions as to how the courts could level the playing field. I'm hoping the judges mod my article '+5 Insightful,' but I'd settle for '+3 Informative.' Here is the actual article (PDF). (If anyone out there can send me a decent HTML version of it, I'll run that one up the flagpole as well.)" Wired is helping to spread the word on Ray's article.

I'm checking the "no karma bonus" since this is so far ooftopic, but a so-called "bible" that is protected by copyright isn't a text I would trust in the least. "If a man asks for your cloak, give him your coat as well".

Also I wouldn't trust a preacher in an expensive suit, or one who wore a necktie. The tie is the symbol of wealth and power; bankers and politicians wear neckties. People who wear
"Satan's leash" worship money, not God.

I burn the KJV to CD and give them away. If you are a Christian, you should too.
