[more stuff deleted] I don't think that it will stop a lawsuit. But i've understood that countersues has been done (and won), couldn't you just refer to those cases. I'm wondering, what if I make a 'bad' recommendation sometime, can the producer sue me here in Denmark?. Quite scary to think of!!!!!. Should I leave the net to set my mind at peace? Or just become a passive reader? Actually this here is quite new to me, and now i'm wondering: may i speak my mind here? -- This is my OWN opinion fk@rci.dk (I hate .sig files) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1/2 * PS = PS/2 (half a computer) | 1/2 * OS = OS/2 (half an operating system)
