You Don't Really Own Your Phone According to This Law (Nerd Rage)
If I own it I should be able to experiment with it and there should be no laws that interfere with this fundamental and basic right!
Near real time responses, in fact automated real time responses are possible, but only if there is no review period whatsoever. I doubt the jury would understand that caveat though, no matter how hard you try to explain it to them.

I don't think it's necessary to be anal about a limit of 120 words, but much more than that and you have definitely gone too far. I shoot for 90 words or less, but sometimes 90 words just isn't enough!

Actually your quote is 144 words and exceeds this forums fair use policy by 14 words!

It's close enough or as hungrybill says, there's no need to be anal about things. 3) Fair use is only relevant to outside articles. Quoting another post is an entirely different matter.
