More Thompson

Here is the summarized list of judgments against old Jack. As an overall, "let's strip this guy of his right to practice law in Florida" motion, the layperson would say, "Um, obviously?" So why this stuff goes on for review after review, with appeals and so forth, it's beyond my non-lawyerly mind to understand. Obviously the accused need protection against abuse by the state, but there is always a situation like this that makes one wish that you could just cut to the chase, because it's so apparent that this person is abusing the system.

The good news here, one hopes, is that Jack will be able to free his time up from his busy ambulance chasing schedule, and devote himself full-time to promoting games. Stirring up controversy around games is the main service he provides me, and that he can spend more time on it, that will help me and my colleagues immensely.

This article is written poorly and with an animus that brings doubt to the veracity of any claims it may make. It is below the status of the IEEE to be involved with or sponsor such an affair.
I hope this is helpful, the world has enough hot air already.

Thank you very much for you comment, Gaunt. Since the intent was to needle, with a puckish sort of joi de vivre, I think I can safely claim "Mission Accomplished".
