He is smart enough to know that law is produced by political discussion, and also that the discussion in question is just beginning in those blurry areas where professional and amateur use overlap. I see no need for disappointment when seeing him wisely refraining from claiming a solution when there is still so much work to do." My disappointment does not lie in the absence of a solution, but rather in the lack of any suggestions for moving the political discussion forward. He has clear opinions about how things are not working now, but doesn't offer opinions about how to improve the system. From John's description of the talk as being 'amazing', I had hoped for more.
