Judge Whyte rules:
>     "To the extent that the order allowed the seizure of
>     'articles and things that appear to be the works of L.Ron
>     Hubbard protected by copyrights,' it went beyond the purpose
>     of the Copyright Act to provent unauthorized 'reproduction'
>     of protected works; the mere possession of copyrighted works
>     does not offend the Copyright Act."

Ron:
>Geez, didn't he *read* that seizure order before he signed it???
    
    Sorry.  I'd best not comment.

>     "In effect, this language gave plaintiffs' experts the
>     authority to search through Erlich's possessions and computer
>     files using their discression <omiGod!> in deciding what to
>     seize, unchecked by any law enforcement officials."

>Did he really spell "discretion" that way?
 
    No, my error.  The omiGod is for the idea of the scienos
    having any discretion about my privacy.
