Thanks for the correction (which is not legal advice from you,
right?). I'm not a lawyer -- especially in the U.S., since that's
what's relevant -- and I was merely parroting the line as I've
understood it (which is why I qualified my remark). That said, this
is still the wrong venue for this discussion, because we don't have
the collective legal expertise to discuss the question intelligently,
IMO.
