" >Comment: I have not received any response from NFL so I have educated Great post, again, Peter. NFL seems to be licking its wounds. I must admit to a bit of jealousy here. I never got threatened by a lawsuit from NFL :( That would look good a fellow's raw resume. Perhaps when I get together my copies of NFL and the iranian's book I can compare a few paragraphs online and then I, too, will be party to a lawsuit threat. Heck, lets spread it out: if everyone subbed to this list posted their favorite plagiarized paragraph in NFL then wethreekings could sue _everyone_. Kind of a class action suit ;) Actually, I am surprised NFL hasn't sued all the cooked food eaters in the world--after all they cause all the war and other nasty stuff. Ah, but the cooked food jurors would be blinded by their evil addictions... Cheers, Kirt
