This nation is sinking into the quicksand of the Paperwork Age, a
postmodern world in which judges issue meta-injuctions against other
judges who issue injuctions against lawyers who file lawsuits every 3.2
minutes. It's an age where lawyers design ballots forms and then proceed
to argue over how to count them.
The United States has bluescreened. A fatal exception error occured on
Election Night, and now all of our unsaved work has been lost.

the 2000 US Presidential Election From Hell and the dreaded
"Lawyerclysm"
