Again, with feeling... We just have to wait two or three or four years, till the Millennials and Post-Millenials grow in number to take control. Then America Exceptionalism (q.v.) will bound forth in a quality and strength not even imagined by the Greatest Generation. Just hang on.

P.S. What else do you think I'm doing, posting every day here?

Having to repeat oneself, for what cause one is unsure... ...That the permitting this Air to escape and mix with the Atmosphere, is usually offensive to the Company, from the fetid Smell that accompanies it. That all well-bred People therefore, to avoid giving such Offence, forcibly restrain the Efforts of Nature to discharge that Wind. That so retain’d contrary to Nature, it not only gives frequently great present Pain, but occasions future Diseases, such as habitual Cholics, Ruptures, Tympanies, &c. often destructive of the Constitution, & sometimes of Life itself... http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/document/to-the-royal-academy-of-farting/

Outgassing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Outgassing (sometimes called offgassing, particularly when in reference to indoor air quality) is the release of a gas that was dissolved, trapped, frozen or absorbedin some material.[1] Outgassing can include sublimation and evaporation (which are phase transitions of a substance into a gas), as well as desorption, seepage from cracks or internal volumes, and gaseous products of slow chemical reactions. Boiling is generally thought of as a separate phenomenon from outgassing because it consists of a phase transition of a liquid into a vapor of the same substance.

Note those dullards aren't getting appointed. Gorsuch now is a different matter, but unqualified he is not.

Couple months ago, a notably conservative federal district court judge asked, in a sex-work case, where is the logic that it should be illegal to sell something that it is perfectly legal to give away. the times, they are a-changin'...

Trust not the legislators, but do trust the courts to constrain the ensuing madness.

I thought we were talking about owning & operating a contentious site. Posting is a First Amendmenr right. Nothing we post here can be used against us in an evidentiary way, far as I know.

Ah! Well, if you didn't have the wits to already expropriate all your assets...!

E.g., Oz's servers here are physically located in Hyderabad (or the like), where there is little enforcement of anything. Excepting the customary modest gratuities to the mid-level functionaries in charge of granting the usual colonial-era business lets & licenses.

Inter-country enforcement of that kind of law is something I don't know of any precedent for.

How could that be enforced?

This recalls a characterization of the Other Forum that our @WhippedGuy gave me in a PM: 'Lot's-Wife syndrome'! The damnable urge, e'en in the midst of fleeing therefrom, to turn back and look at the latest doings would, inevitably, expose one to such rampant stupidities and vacancies that the mind and spirit would be frozen for the rest of the day, turning one into a veritable pillar of salt!
