I have some bestest dancing trousers called Dave, I would be furious if anyone lost him.

well Wij, we are currently in the *delightful* position that not only do we have a monolithic and I think fair to say partly broken legal system but we are also pretty stinking rich so have plenty of money to waste on it. In poor countries they just bribe everyone and be done with it - probably a much fairer system

His multimillion dollar calculations for damages included the 1,400 hours he says he spent preparing the case.

the guy's clearly dedicated. that's surely a plus next time he goes job hunting!

Jobs for those that get results not for number of man hours put in...

Thats not true, he could go work for railtrack, i see them paying people to sit around doing fuck all for hours by the railways instead of actually fixing the track.

Cost of hiring a car so he could travel to a different dry cleaners. Fucking Americans.
