Your statement in a memo was quoted in the LA Times recently concerning a death penalty case involving Thomas Thompson. I used your quote to help defend my son against a school teacher who wrongfully accused him of plagiarism without due process. You said, "Civilization survives because from time to time...." Thanks for the insight....
