One thing which is "clear" is that the law seldom is. The law is muddy at best. That is why we have lawyers and judges. Heck, just the interpretation and debate of some very experienced folks here affirm that. I am very much enjoying this thread. I am expanding various topics in my classes and this is a great example to show students how the law may appear "clear" to one, but can be mucked up in a hurry by someone who knows how to argue the law. The words of the law do not always adequately convey the "intent" of the legislature and visa-versa.
