Yes, Ross Jacobs, we all know that Dave Berry isn't going to come to Hanover to personally shoot you. Hi lawyers aren't, either. My 's' key doesn't always work. But, did you stop to consider that posting such things may be illegal? Now, no, no one is going to prosecute you, but it is still wrong. Is it illegal for you to cheat on exam if you don't get caught? Is it okay to hit someone who is walking along the edge of the road late at night when you are driving home, just because there' no one and around and you wouldn't get caught. Now, I enjoy Dave Berry articles a much as the next person. However, if it is illegal for someone to post these articles, it is up to his conscience to guide him. Or her. No, Ross, Dave isn't going to machete open your dorm room door. But, just because you won't get caught, that doesn't mean you should do it. Remember Dartmouth's honor concept? -- "How would you feel if someone Peter Merchant took your hard earned work and ate it!" "Marge, what else can you do with cake?"
