That would be the library's business the same way they need to make sure they do not improperly distribute copyrighted material. (BTW, I wholeheartedly support the concept of protecting new and unique strains of plants and animals.

Ah, Quaaludes. Those were the days. The manufacturer "voluntarily" stopped production when an investigation showed that only 25% of the production was actually ending up in the hands of pharmacists.

TV production has always been massively derivative. With so many channels, "me too" programming is a safe way to keep your job for a short while. Does anyone else remember when all three of the networks killed any show that was even slightly rural?

Perhaps a bit late to the party, but with plenty of content.

Forgiveness needs to be sharply defined when dealing with family. The one I usually use is "Returning the relationship to the state prior to the other person's transgression." With parents, I use "Being civil in public and private." I never define Forgiveness as "Treating the other party in the manner they, or your peers, demand."

I knew this sounded familiar. The below story is about a New York woman who grew up in Denmark who was arrested for leaving her child sleep outside a restaurant while she and her husband dined inside. The charges were dropped. The mother then sued for false arrest. In return for "losing" the case, she was awarded $67,000 in damages.
