[HP4GU-FAQ] Yahoo...& legal sensitivity

[Tandy, Heidi]

Do you really want a dissertation on libel & slander laws? 
What about ISP immunity, at least in the US?
I can put some into my FAQ on the lawsuit - I was just going to dissect
trademark & copyright laws and show the holes in her case that way (and if
anyone knows a link to the site which has the Scholastic Answer to her suit,
or a copy of it, I would love to see it!)

On a completely unrelated note, Penny & I have been having a little off-list
talk about hosting of the FAQ & making it accessable in a non-YAHOO way.
ABout 2 weeks ago, for the Very Expensive Price of $17, I got a domain name
registration for thethreebroomsticks.com (it's a pub name, we're adults, we
can go there) - BUT I don't want to be solely responsible for finding a host
for the name/site or paying the costs of it. Does anyone know who could host
it?
