Ummm...The North Americans are handleable...the Portugese too. Alas (for them) they star so far away..besides, there is only 3 of them...they will have to bring in more countries if they think they can conquer Ireland. (of course, they have started out doing well...)

 

Long Live Hibernia!

Sorry Mr. 71 b.c. Roman slave & insurrectionist, you might have a harder time than you think.

 

Under the Berne Convention, you can only get compensation for your idea if it has commercially marketable value...otherwise, here is the colloquy,

 

You: "Hey! They stole my idea!"

Court: "Yes. Ok. I see that. What sort of monetary harm did you suffer?"

You: "Hey! But that was MY idea!"

Court: "OK. Yes. I see that, but you may only be compensated if your idea had monetary value and you can prove it."

You: "You mean, if I get the great idea to go grocery shopping and someone steals my idea by going grocery shopping too, that I can't sue them for stealing my idea?"

Court: "No. I'm sorry. You cannot"

You: "But that's not fair! Somebody oughta change that law."

Court: "Next case, please."

 

etc...

Hows about this then.....

 

Me: "Hey! They stole my idea!"

Court: "Yes. Ok. I see that. What sort of monetary harm did you suffer?"

Me: "Hey! But that was MY idea!"

Court: "OK. Yes. I see that, but you may only be compensated if your idea had monetary value and you can prove it."

Me: "You mean, if I get the great idea to go grocery shopping and someone steals my idea by going grocery shopping too, that I can't sue them for stealing my idea?"

Court: "No. I'm sorry. You cannot"

Me: "But that's not fair! Somebody oughta change that law."

Court: "Next case, please."

Me: "But wait a mo there hombre, you see this gun pointing to your head, does this change the law?, does it make a difference to your judgement."

Court: "Yes, Yes it does. The court rules in your favour, the court offers an unreserved apology and finds the other guy guilty"

Me: "Thanks" :beer:

Yes there are only 3 but we carry big sticks! The Canadians have landed on the shores of Irland. Our Mounties are on there way to clean up the squalor of Dublin.

 

Dublin has a bunch of new paint after the 'big sticks' shelling it received.

Appreciate you giving me the oppportunity for some industrial 'reorganization.'

 

If you give me some lead time, next time, I can prepare a much warmer welcome.

 

Oh, and sorry that the 20,000 CB points that hit xDublin had too few targets.... :ranting:

 

Still Safe ;) ,

I'm not sure, but I don't have any evidence of a British bombardment of xDublin...except a milllion years ago when I lost a popular pub and half of a parking lot...but I think that was a Japanese Sub who thought that Dublin as "horrywood"...it IS 1941, isn't it?

 

Actually, the heavy lifting remodeling came from munitions made in Pembroke and Coimbra (at least that's what some of the UEX shell casings read). So, no...the British paint removal had nominal effect.

 

Of course, now I know how London felt this Spring. ;)
