Hey arnie, was trying to forget about the suit. Not! The suit against me was settled in January of 2001. I was the last one, probably because of the copywrite issue. Against me, the case was a draw. No admission of guilt, no monetary settlement. I agreed to obey the existing laws of copyright which is nothing more than agreeing to follow the law, a nonconcession. I contested the jurisdiction issue which we agreed would remain unsettled until the next suit, ie I didn't waive my objections to jurisdiction by entering the settlement. I admitted no wrong doing either in defamation or copyright.

Regarding the other 10 if I remember four cases were dismissed unilaterally by CSFB, an admission that they had no case. Four had settlements like mine but without the copyright and jurisdiction issues. The last two did not communicate with the group so I don't know for sure. I suspect their settlements were somewhat the same though there may have been a slight twist because of the content of their original post.

Bill
