Based on the quote from waxy.org http://www.waxy.org/archive/2003/05/index.shtml
" After Ghyslain returned the borrowed videotape to his friend, the video sat in a basement for months." Yea i agree too he can sue to get them all removed but to sue for emotional damage is silly. This is my take of that quote, he recorded the video and then gave it back to his friend KNOWING the video was on there. And he knows that he was being a moron on the video so its obvious he didn't really care too much about it. If it was so scarring he would have not done it in the first place or not returned it to his friend. But even then is giving a tape back to someone implied consent that they would be seen on it by others? Or do you actively have to agree to let others look at it?? *shrugs* oh well i dont mind the sueing to get them off the net just the sueing to make money ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dana Tierney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 2:35 PM Subject: Re: RE: Fat Brat sues, Now is Teasing > yeah I saw that.
