Thank you Seb for sharing this information. I'm very interested in
learning more about this case (how did Jerry Thring get the high court to
have a case against the gov't on this issue? Who is Jerry Thring? :) What
has been the response thus far from the court? What about the media
coverage?)
Please share whatever you know :)
Thanks,
-Rania

".. not to believe in the possibility of dramatic change is to
forget that things have changed, not enough, of course, but enough to show
what is possible. We have been surprised before in history. We can be
surprised again. Indeed, we can do the surprising."
- Howard Zinn, 'You can't be neutral on a moving train.' (p.83)
