>- Gee, what's that lead paragraph again? "Despite America Online Inc.'s settlement with states' attorneys general last week, its legal problems appear far from over." I recall someone saying something similar here recently but he was then rebuked by some imperious "lord". - I guess they hadn't heard the "Lord" Chancellor had issued his decree. Has AOL been struck dumb? Maybe you should contact the lead attorneys and order them not to proceed? And the beat goes on .......< I think the legal process is very clear on this. Only those who "settle" with AOL under the terms negotiated with the AG's are ineligible to participate in the class action. That will still leave some awfully angry subscribers. It is in AOL's best interest to get subs to agree to the terms of the AG settlement. Those of you who are subs, should recognize that if you accept AOL's "freebies" or rebates, you have probably effectively opted out of the class action. I admit that I am not a lawyer (thank God for little things), but I think this is how it works.
