Except that there seems to be something of an explosion of false

If you refer to someone the likes of "Prince Leonard of Hutt" then I
would tend to disagree with you. I think you have to give him some
degree of admiration. Anyone who can in some small way give the finger
to unjust governmental nonsense and then make something out of it all.

No, I wasn't referring to him. He has been around for a very long
time.

If you search this forum you will find a number of instances of what I
was referring to.
