Hi Jeff,
If memory serves, I think you actually "discovered" the anti-SLAPP legislation in California that we used to take on Business Wire.
I'd like to take credit for that, but I just can't recall that I actually did it. I remember doing all of the research on SLAPP, something like 59 or so websites at the time, but I cannot recall if I did it because someone else suggested it, or I did it on my own. So, if someone else has a better memory, they're more than welcome to any accolades.
What I did do, and I do recall this, is to tell you how to defend the lawsuit without becoming poverty stricken yourself. I remember vividly how skeptical you were when I clued you in on homeowner's insurance, and I also remember how relieved you were when you found out it was true. I also remember a certain hedge fund manager, extremely popular on SI at the time, who was trying to use the same tactic to defend himself in a lawsuit, but he couldn't do that because he was a professional. Sometimes it's much better to be a hobbyist.
EK!!! |
