The Usual Legal Stuff

Needless to say you DO know that this is Ed's opinion and not a reflection of anyone in the rest of the free (or otherwise) world. Since none of us are really free in the truest sense of the word it bears noting the obligatory copyright © 2011 Ed Esposito governs my ramblings so if you want to link, link away; if you want to lift, please remember to blame me (and a link back would be nice, too...)
