I am not quite sure what you wanted to say :-) Anyway - this cited sentence is for me a nice expression of "0 tolerance" copyright paranoia definition. In fact, most attorneys say usually to their clients that there is nothing like legal certainty as long as the court verdict is known and being innocent does not give you 100% probability that you won't be sentenced as guilty. Everyone can be a suspect of committing a crime and it is just a matter of probability that vast majority of people are not taken to jail. This is just because the number of beds in jails is limited :-) -- Tomek "Polimerek" Ganicz http://pl.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Polimerek http://www.ganicz.pl/poli/ http://www.ptchem.lodz.pl/en/TomaszGanicz.html _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
