"We intend to hold your firm directly responsible for this illegal, irresponsible and dangerous defacing of public property," Cesar Fernandez, the department's assistant counsel, said in a letter to Microsoft.

Dangerous?

fuck microsoft, for real.
$50 is a real joke.

Now they got way more exposure than the stickers would have gotten them.

Nina · 10-25-2002, 10:59 PM

wait, brown bear, you're not in ny, are you?

I think that was probably the idea, but I doubt they would admit that.

Guess what? Bowling for Columbine isn't playing in any theatre in New York. I'm not sure why. Must be some conspiracy.

Look: http://www.bowlingforcolumbine.com/a...?state=NewYork

New Jersey is the closest place where you can see it.

I guess it is.

Anyways, I don't live in New York (although I have before), but if I did live there, I would go see it with you (even though I already saw it today). But you should definitely go and see it. Ebert and Roeper gave it two thumbs up, and it was a winner at the Cannes Film Festival.

I would like to meet you one day because you seem very interesting. Maybe at some convention in the future?

Absolutely.

I'll let you know what I think after I see it... the website is very compelling.

I'll be in Vegas
