It's sad how even the Web is a playground for lawyers. Is it me or was the
Web developed to foster the SHARING OF INFORMATION? Isn't that the nature
of the beast? Isn't that why you can read the source on all the pages
contained 'within'?

I think I'll go home and sue my neighbor and my development's contractor -
the contractor for designing and building a house exactly like mine right
next door, and my neighbor for parking his cars just like mine - in the
driveway.

Sorry for the sarcasm, but am I the only one bothered by this?
