Famac,The point of my post is not to predict the outcome of the appeal, it is to properly discuss the issues. As an attorney, I know how difficult it is to predict the outcome of a case, and how often judges get it wrong. I've lost appeals I should have won and won appeals I should have lost. So, no, I'm not going to bet on an outcome, especially when I haven't read the appellate briefs on which the outcome will be based. This appeal could have several stages, and it will be a long time, possibly years, before it is over.I also don't make gentlemen's bets with folks who aren't gentlemen. Binecon has repeatedly insulted me and my profession. On that note, I find it curious you feel a need to note that you feel "insulted" by a comment not directed to you, but make no comment on Binecon's rudeness to me. Seems to me that Binecon's unprovoked insults are motivated by some long past political animosity, as I can't otherwise explain his insult that at some other point my analysis has offended him. Hard for me to believe that my love of Barks or EC could have offended anyone. I agree that there is no place for political animosity on this board. The fact I apparently pegged Binecon accurately is suggested by his lack of alternative explanation for his animosity.
No further need for me to waste time on this.
