OK -- I hate to be the wet blanket, but ....... I think we are at the point where we really need to get some legal advice.Since I'm an old grump, even though I have a number of friends who are attorneys, this is the kind of thing we would have to pay for, and my old coot lawyer friends are pretty expensive. Does anyone have a young(er) lawyer who knows aboutr this stuff who we could hire. David PS -- If you want I will make this as a formal motion -- that we hire an attorney to advise us about the legal aspects of AGA starting a forum on the Internet, and that we spent up to $1,500 for the lawyer's time.
