Ted would be the evil one.

yes my opinion exactly, he is priceless, thus should be the fee to view.

honestly i thought it was some $20 fee.

but it would be interesting to see uri and his evil twin. prof. castranova, or is the other way around

Awww Ian,
Com’n now…I think we can all somehow get together to agree that Peter is priceless, can’t we? Say what you will, but I’ll have you know that we, at the Herald, often just gaze at him with wonder. We still haven’t quite figured out exactly what it is he does. I just know that noone ever has or ever will do whatever he does just the way he does it.
(In case you’re wondering, Peter, that was me just there now backing you up, putting in a few good words for you, polishing the ol’ reputation, and all that crap. Really, don’t thank me now; it’s all right).

Well, if that didn’t sell you, there will be other panelists, ya know, and a just a beautiful bevy of topics. I’d consider it if you’re up there. Also, your check goes to “Institute for Information Law and Policy”— we can all get behind that one, at least, aye?!

I’ll be signing baseballs. And so will Robin and Cory. That could be worth $250…

$350? Whoa, I don’t think Peter is worth that much.

Shit, could we be any more self-absorbed here? I’m sorry. Ian wants to go to the conference. Follow the link for details. Looks like you can register for 350 bucks (250 academic/student). I don’t know if it would conceivably fill up, but my best bet is that they’ll take your money right up until the doors open.

HAH!
First off, rest assured that the good men and women at Boalt Hall there at UC-Berkeley will get along just fine without me. I must remain at UMich (you know how I’m *so* needed, for instance to keep nameless editors on the relatively straight and narrow— no easy task, I tell ya! {and stop rolling your freakin’ eyes; don’t deny it, I can just *feel* you doing that}). Ahemmmm.

Well, if all that’s needed is to make a sad and humiliating public ass of myself; well, I don’t like to brag but in that area, I think we both know that I can bring it.

As for Jeff Brown’s love child, I have no comment (except this: I felt there was indeed an unexpressed longing for me that came through his correspondence to me; that’s all I’m saying).

Well Candace, given that you were already accepted by Berkeley Law School and then BLEW THEM OFF, I’m not sure exactly how high you are aiming here, but yes, let’s say you wanted to be a law clerk for Clarence Thomas or Bruce Suter (hottie that the latter is). In that event I highly recommend a shameful public scandal of some form. For instance an announcement that you are carrying Jeff Brown’s love child…

I don’t get it, good professor Uri. Go slower. (I’m rather embarrassingly revealing the depth of the problem right here and now). 1. I need to put away the law books. 2. I not only need to join a multi-player game. 3. I must get myself permanently, publicly, painfully, and shamefully banished from that game?

I’m not sure just hitting the books wouldn’t just be easier.
