Lee--A true down to earth post. I am reminded though of seeing our president on TV and he was lamenting that someone had shot someone for "disrespecting them". His comment was that "If I shot everyone who disrespected me I would be plumb out of bullets before I reached the Mississippi." So it might be best to offer them the choice of being shot or paying a massive fine to you. I think it was Voltaire who said "I disagree with what you have said but I will fight to the death to defend my right to tell you what a stupid jackass you are for saying it." Maybe it wasn't Voltaire but it is a guiding principal on this thread. Druss I have raided some more E-mails so free speech applies to the CEO of that corporation, at least freely distributed.
