I attempted to send this question via email, but was unsuccessful. I was
wondering where these articles came from. It would seem that the jursi-
diction of the decisions you mentioned would be important, at least to
me anyway, since different states have different laws concering privay. 
You can send via response via email, unless you feel that it is in the
interest of the group as a whole.


Many Thanks

(Disclaimer: who would claim any of my own opinions :-) )
