Hey Gooner!:wavey:
I think the point is that we don’t believe that is the real reason behind their decision. I for one think it is a convenient excuse. Certainly I could not argue about the ‘uncertain’ legal conditions in the US…. but they are not in the US and I don’t really believe that plays a major roll.
I suppose you could say that it has always been a gray area in US law but I am under the belief that it is a convenient excuse. Perhaps I am wrong but it certainly seeeeeems that way.
