Please keep your follow-up comments civil, as I have a feeling I know where most of us will stand on this issue, and -- seriously -- I don't feel like being sued. And before you say something like, "But they can't sue you for....," I'd encourage you to check out this case.
Again, let's discuss this, but keep in mind that I don't want to get sued. So if we discuss this, let's focus on the issue(s), not the emotions regarding any particular company.
