[UA] Re: The damn videotape ad

[Peter Hindman]

   I am sufficiently annoyed by this thread that I intend to contribute to
it.

   THE FOLLOWING IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE.  IT IS DEEPLY UNINFORMED.  IT ISN'T
EVEN FUNNY.  IT IS JUST MEANT TO INSPIRE MORE ARGUMENTS.  I COPIED IT OFF
SLASHDOT.  YEAH, THAT'S IT.

   If you put up that script, and someone is insane enough to film it on
the promise of four hundred dollars, and they send you the tape, and they
take you to court to make you pay for it, then they're trying to make
money off your copyrighted intellectual property, which a) voids the sale,
b) means you should countersue them, and c) gets you charges if you're an 
entropomancer (for taking uninformed legal advice)! HA HA HA HA HA!

   THE PRECEDING WAS ONLY MEANT TO INSPIRE MORE POINTLESS ARGUMENTS.  I AM
NOT A LAWYER.  THERE ARE NO LAWYERS ON MY PLANET.  HA HA HA!
