	Re: Do you have lawsuit insurance?

well, there are some communities where it's required.

and of course, the pat response is "but if you've got nothing to hide" - completely missing the point of anonymity in the first place. There are a lot of things, terrible things, that people use the internet to discuss, that they simply can't discuss without anonymity. Rape victims, incest victims, all sorts of terrifying, terrible things. All of these get swept into the same basket. No offence, but dot_snark is irrelevant compared to these more serious (and equally ignored) issues.

well, most guys I know couldn't give a damn about diamonds. But you should have heard the ruckus from my ex (an otherwise intelligent, educated person) when I suggested that I'd never buy her diamonds - for those very reasons. Of course, it's not ALL women (you, for example). But I doubt there are many situations where guys are buying diamonds and the women are expressing disgust and taking them back to the shop.

see, now making them yourself? that's cool. I totally dig that.

but yeah, raping killing and pillaging thousands of small village(r)s, that doesn't float my biscuit.

and cutting tools.. mMmmm. can't think of a single thing I'd need them for, but boy I'd like to have some around right now...
