		<description>The lawsuit against PZ was well reported. What about this assult against Irons? I personally have my lawn chair and drink, but haven't been able to find where to watch the fireworks.

Anyone have anything on that?

I bought "God on Trial" and it is interesting, detailed reading. I would like to see what Mr. Irons is doing to turn Little into a small pile of mulch.

		<description>Is it just me or does the name Pivar make any of you think of grasshoppers? Some little insect like that, maybe locusts or praying mantises. Not trying to insult, just saying that that's the mental picture I get.</description>

		<description>So, does this mean that Stuart Pivar now officially acknowledges his status to be a classic crackpot?</description>

		<description>PZ:
&#62; Peter Irons, who did such good work on my behalf, is now being
&#62; threatened with legal action by Stuart Pivar's lawyer, Michael Little.

I wonder if he's suing for "tortious interference with his business"?  (Or whatever the phrase is.)  Perhaps Pivar told him to withdraw the suit, because of all the comments sent to them by Mr. Irons, and so Mr. Little has now lost a client and associated income?

Perhaps it's for defamation of character, for publicly posting his tearing down of Mr. Little's work?

(BTW, how do you get that nice quote around quoted material?)</description>
