I LMAO when I visited that site yesterday. My first thought was that it would be perfect for "Hero Fest". Then I noticed that it had been written by 3 lawyers. Figured I shouldn't tread on their toes.

But it's a great piece of work. Entertaining while educating. I think a link deserves a sticky in the Documentary section.
