Thanx for your vote of confidence - I am not a troll, but I do have cynical tendencies. I certainly agree with your moral and practical assessment of hoarding, but still have some questions about legality. I only posted a short reply to this thread the first time because I didn't have time to dig up a reference where I heard about this (errr... I still haven't made the time...). But I do see that some of the other posters here have begun to look into it. As an outside observer, I am constantly surprised at the incredible (and increasing) restrictions that citizens of the "land of the free" will put up with (oops... I hope that's not trolling...).
