Great quotes, Jeff I don't know if most of the "objectionable" material was on the yahoo board or the website. I don't think they had a disclaimer on their own website. FTR I have disclaimers on my DD websites. I think the jurors should have read the Yahoo tos and agreed to them otherwise they shouldn't have been allowed to view the posts. If they did not, I don't think they should have been allowed into evidence. If they agreed to the tos and allowed the post into evidence, the jurors would have voted very differently, if the judge gave them proper instructions. I see so many holes in this Varian case. I think the judge and jurors based their decisions on their own personal emotions. They probably just felt that they wouldn't want someone like Day and Delfino saying this stuff about them so they must be guilty. I really wish there would be an appeal but then there'd have to be another expensive trial. If they were to appeal, I bet Varian would try to settle and the ruling would never be reversed.
