If you try to read their story, you only get so far before they ask you to subscribe, something I do not wish to do. Such “for-pay” links are a total waste of time.

Th problem is that “mainstreaming” is now overly popular and “enforced” in places it never should have been used in the first place – there’s really no replacement for individual judgement calls.

As a layman, I just wish that occaisionally, lawyers (and legislators)had to suffer from the consequences of their actions that they inflict on the rest of us.
