I NEVER claimed to be a lawyer, and I never will be a lawyer.  I am a
technical writer by trade, and don't EVER plan to be a lawyer-type.  Do you
really want to bring another round of lawyer jokes up that have so long been
in the political arena in the past few years?  I don't.

As I stated in an earlier post here, I don't care whether or not this
statement is gramatically correct or not.  I DO care how it is officially
written!  And I did indicate, in the same paragraph, that since it was
originally written:

"without the expressed written consent..."

It shall remain that way until a law is passed that changes it.  And oh yeah,
before you take such rash and obnoxious opinions about other people like,
"there's nothing more dangerous than a man who thinks he knows," especially
when you don't know them, think about what you say.  That is a COMPLETELY
UNCALLED FOR, UNPROFESSIONAL, CHILDISH REMARK!

I will continue to write it and use it as it was originally (legally) written,
even though how gramatically incorrect you claim that it is.  As a technical
writer, I'll use it as it's officially written, and let my lawyer fight it out
in court.  That's his job.
