It certainly sounded as if you saw the courts as gov't intervention Yes it sounded like I said the that intervention by the courts is government intervention. It sounded like it because I directly said it. I said it because it is true. ...and you didn't like it. I made no comment about liking it or not. The only thing that I said or implied I didn't like was the idea that court intervention should not be considered government intervention. In this particular case the government was very likely to get involved on way or another. I wasn't condemning government involvement in general, or the courts getting involved in particular. I was criticising supporters of court intervention, complaining about intervention by the government, because the courts are part of the government. I have also criticised courts overstepping their bounds in general, or in specific other cases, but not in this case. Tim
