Comments on: A pub with beer taps on the table?! http://blog.geeklawyer.org/2008/03/26/a-pub-with-beer-taps-on-the-table/ A barrister gossips & rants on intellectual property law, the legal system and civil liberties.

Basically you set up a shortlist of favourite pubs (or clubs, restaurants etc), add a list of friend’s email address and choose a date and time. Invitations are sent out with a link so everyone can RSVP easily and see who else is going. The neatest thing is that the venue is selected at random, at the time the invitations are sent out, from the list given. The date can be recurring so you can have it go off automatically every week, choosing a different pub each time. The RSVP page is great as everyone can leave messages for each other to arrange where to meet, explain why they’ll be late, or worse of all, why they’re not coming!

There is a lovely line: "Mr Neal is entitled to be an agitator." Smash the racism, do away with false justice... Oh dear, I've developed compassion again...

Been busy writing a formalist & liberalist (welfare and libertarian) critique of Neal v R (1982) 149 CLR 305. Perhaps it's a sign of my inner wanker, but I love it!
