It's not a criminal act to call someone a liar. It is a criminal act
to lie under oath. Applying libel and copyright laws to USENET is so
far a waste of time in court. You have no real legal remedy. Instead
you're taking your case to the media. You can't lose. Is liar,
rapist, and thief the extent of pursuable measures on your part? I
want you to state the full extent for the public record since you made
the threat to me and others.
