Gary H.,
Actually, the first round has already been won by El Jefe. It was through his brilliant observation of HCI's website using a well known makers image to promote their propaganda, that the first round goes to him. If you can gag back the nausea long enough to visit,(HCI) you'll notice the image is no longer there. The change is very subtle, but unmistakable. HCI has no stomach for a fight when it comes down to it.
On the other side are the Burr Bros (named for being the Burrs under Sarah's saddle), selling nothing and asking nothing in return for publishing the truth. This isn't a win lose fight at all. It's win/win for the good guys. Any time the truth is made public, there can't be any loser but the one that continues to spread lies. Even if by some small chance, HCI does manage to win in a court battle, it will cost them plenty, and NOT in terms of $$ and cents. They're (HCI and Co.) losers and liars, bullys and brats throwing a tantrum. Even PC bows to unvarnished truth. It happens a lot, you just never hear about it since it doesn't cause a stir. Big name battles always get the publicity, ya know? Look at the modern version of Molon Labe, which of course would be NUTS! While Bastogne was getting the headlines for that line, conditions in places like Foy(?) were a lot grimer and harsher. Just because a General didn't offer up immortal words, didn't squelch the determination of the other guys or change what happened there. Big battles seldom determine the outcome. It's the little battles. all added up that do. Heck, if big victories determined the whole thing we'd all be speaking Japanese after Pearl or Vietnamese after Tet.
I do agree, it is far fetched to dream that Nader would enter the fray, and didn't expect anyone to take me seriously on that, hence the LOL!. It IS possible, but highly unlikly. Odds are about the same as my winning the Ohio lottery,,,,and I don't buy lottery tickets. It does point out though the weaknesses of HCI's stance. They are after monetary gain through grants and contributions, and aren't at all interested in the making of anything safer for anyone.
Again, Viva le Bros Burr, long live El Jefe and John! Let your chests swell a bit with pride fellas. You've earned it.
