Thankfully, I'm going to stop reading this right here, because you're
attributing to me something I didn't say. I said that rewriting the
liability laws to outlaw draconian EULA's wasn't going to happen. I'm
fairly certain that regulation, on the other hand, is likely to be the
solution that ends up working, and I said so much earlier. So since
I'm not interested in rehashing the issues for you, I'm going to go
take the evening off.
