  1. Not a problem on Lessig Spins Copyright Law · · Score: 1

    Since no one ever reads them.

  2. Re:the definition of a right on ACLU Campaign Challenges Patriot Act · · Score: 1

    One of my favorite movies is about a president who falls in love with a lobbyist.

    Dude. That wasn't a movie, it was CNN.

  3. Interns in hospitals on Will Legalities Choke Off Online Volunteerism? · · Score: 1
    Even "internships" are on shakey legal ground; hospital interns in Boston are forming a union.
    Somewhat OT, but an Intern in a hospital is not some college student who makes coffee. Interns are MDs in their first year out of med school. They work terrible hours (60-100/week), get paid jack s**t, and have a tremendous amount of stress. They're still being trained (it takes 3-7yrs AFTER med school to become a fully certified doctor), so technically they are students recieving a stipend, not employees recieving a salary. This lets the hospitals ignore minimum wage laws, etc.
