The problem here with hiring a lawyer is that it is unclear how to
ever establish a level of proof sufficient for a case in the law court.
So what if we identify the perp to the satisfaction of this list?
Would a jury be impressed? I fear not.
This brings up yet another paradox presented by this medium.
Internet postings are the most evanescent form of communication,
just so many wispy electrons with no ink-on-paper tangeability.
Yet the actual permanence of these communications exceeds
the that of the most profound words chiseled into the most
durable stone. spike
