It's even worse. They are telling the next guy that they lie to their employees, that dishonesty is the norm at the company, and that to join them you have to be complicit in the lying they did to the previous employees.
1. The girl was not emotionally healthy. She was diagnosed both with ADD and depression. The family was not in denial.
2. The harasser, and adult, knew this, and in fact, appears to have exploited it.
The parents did do some things wrong, like allowing the girl to have a MySpace account in the first place, but that can't excuse this woman's actions.
One other interesting point: the mother of the child that committed suicide helped her daughter violate the TOS. Does that mean she can be prosecuted also?
I think perhaps it's more about why there are no 3rd party iTunes stores?
Oddly enough, I have no problem with eMusic items on my iPod. It's trivial for a company to sell music that will play on an iPod. It's just not as easy to offer DRM'd music for iPods.

No, you are putting words into other's mouths by saying all posters define it that way, and you are choosing to define the term in the way that best suits your conclusion:
In order for it to not be Civil War, you must first make the assumption that those who seceded from the US formed a legitimate government independent of the US. The elected US government never agreed to that. The war was fought to determine whether that southern government formed was legitimate, and the result was a decisive no.
It is the Southern apologists that contort and bend definitions to try to make it seem as though there was some sort of justifiable reason to engage in insurrection, primarily for the purpose of extending slavery to new territories. It was in no way equivalent on any level to the Revolutionary War.
I started work for a Fortune 100 company in 1996 whose primary sales app was DOS-based until after 2000. We were buying plenty of copies of DOS at least until about 1998 (the app was updated to work in a command prompt under Windows 95/98 by that point, but still not converted into a Windows app). Big corporations will buy large quantities of legacy software to stay away from copyright issues.
Did you read the article you posted? From the article:
"With the successful launch of "Dong Fang I", China became the fifth country after the Soviet Union, United States, France, and Japan to independently launch a satellite."

So who gets all his stuff?
Don't get them to agree to settle. Make it go all the way through a jury verdict so that there's no hiding the terms of the settlement.

We already knew it never happened to you. You're posting on Slashdot.

As long as I get the remote, I'm fine with that.
Yes you are. I think most were probably thinking of this: http://imdb.com/title/tt0116996/.
Don't run, we are your friends.
I can't believe I don't see Battlezone on any of these lists. The original FPS.
