 ST> What's the penalty for wasting the courts time and attempting to push

 ST> hokey...

 MvdV> Are you denying you made copies of FidoNews available to the general
 MvdV> public via your website? Are you denying that articles of mine were
 MvdV> included? 

Take him to court, Michiel.  The fact that distributing the 
Snooze as wide as possible will not bode well well for you.  
Perhaps you should have realized that fact before you 
submitted your article...  

 MvdV> If the answers to the above questions are 'no', you will have a very
 MvdV> hard time proving a fraudulent case. If you pursue this avenue it
 MvdV> might backfire on you. You want me to look up the penalty for slander? 

Include me in your legal action.  If you have a lot of money to 
lose, it would be most amusing as well as profitable for me.  

BTW, the term you are looking for is not 'slander'.  I'll leave 
it up to you to figure out the correct word.  


 MvdV> FYI: As violating copyright is a criminal offence here, when this ever
 MvdV> came to court, it would not be me in the accusers's chair, it would be
 MvdV> a public prosecuter. 

Yeah, right.  Your gvt will take up a case without merit just 
because it was "The Great and Holy Vlist" that made the 
assinine charges.  

 MvdV> I would merely be the viting who reported the
 MvdV> crime. 

It would be a 'viting-less' crime.  

 MvdVI can not predict the outcome of an accusation of "fraudulent
 MvdV> case" against a public prosecuter. TTMBOK no one ever tried that here.
 MvdV> For good reasons perhaps... 

For very good reasons:  The "crime" you would be reporting 
is unfounded.  

 MvdV> When you were convicted - when not if - I could go for a civil case
 MvdV> asking for compensation. As victim of a criminal offence the court's
 MvdV> symPathy would of course be on my side... 

The only thing that they would have sym"P"athy on would be for the 
pathos you evince by your sheer hubris.  Be grateful if they 
only make you pay for court costs.  

As it is, consider yourself lucky that stupidy isn't a 
capital offense.  Else, you would be sitting on Death Row, 
next in line for a meeting with the executioner.
