...true, but the primary beneficiaries of 211 will be securities lawyers like himself. They have made millions filing so-called class action "strike" suits against firms in such volatile industries as high technology. The suits usually allege that a company "knew or should have known" that "adverse" developments would send its stock plummeting without warning. "Fundamentally, Proposition 211 is a Trojan horse for strike suits," charges Hill. Another chairman and CEO, Larry Ellison of Redwood Shores-based Oracle, brands the proposition "legal terrorism...
This is the perfect time for the Undergraduate Council to send a message to the Ad Board. An official council reprimand of the Ad Board's action vis-a-vis Kirtley should wake the Ad Board.

...infantile and inaccurate. He conveniently omitted any reference to the initial paragraphs of the piece which make clear to the reader that the "Enemies List" was inspired by the Filegate scandal. Apparently, the humorless columnist believes that I actually want to line these folks up against a wall and send them to their eternal reward. If he's that dense, I wonder if I should even bother to rebut the rest of his hateful manifesto...
