You're right, because although you may have read those documents your comments have shown me that you have a rather poor understanding of how the law works.
Ditto from my view about you. You go with the 'if this is true' when I go with 'this is true.' Your uncertainty and guesses are disproven by the legal documents filed under oath by both parties. All I'm doing is relaying that info to you. Encyclopedias/lexicons/guidebooks fall under fair use to only a certain extent. That's the whole basis of this lawsuit. It's to find out to what extent that they do fall under fair use. I hardly think that a judgement against the book will wipe out true critical analysis and parody.
Two comments ago, I just said that JKR verbally endorsed a HP guidebook while testifying in court yesterday. You then comment back that JKR doesn't support guidebooks at all. I'm sorry, but she really did say that while under oath.
I don't "agree to disagree" with you - I simply disagree with you, and I was never trying to get something "good" to come out of this.
I see. I use that phrase to amicably end a discussion that's apparently going nowhere. Whatever works for you.
