Merlyn,
I expected no less than to be downvoted for my node...and it happened of course. However I still feel that if you posted a node explaining what happened and how we could learn from it, I would have no problem at all with it, in fact, I'd be happy to see it.
What you did however was telling us something quite unrelated to Perl, being the court decision. People
would learn from your story if you explained the whole thing, which I think is no longer nessecary because I think the whole Perl world knows about it already
Again, I do symphathize with you and I think the State of Oregon is being rediculous, but like I said on the CB yesterday: if anyone else, an unfamous monk, would have posted this, it would most definately be reaped because the content of the node is not related to Perl.
But that's my final word about it. I expect you will respond to this one, and if I feel the urge to respond again, I'll /msg you.
May your court-troubles soon be over!
