absurd eh!
So Arrington thinks Sam's litigation was absurd, and has decided not to submit to the the jurisdiction of the UK courts. I heard Mike was a lawyer, so it seems strange tactics to me - and surely he's been very poorly advised. Very interested to see how this plays out in the courts of public opinion either side of the Atlantic.

By the way, I have my own views and some inside knowledge, as one of the blognation.com editors that was directly involved in this thing (but I'm keeping my own counsel).
