And I would respectfully suggest that there are a good deal of us who
have follow the case and who support Steve anyway.  Personally, I
think JKR is ridiculous to think that the Lexicon book could compete
with her encyclopedia, but then, that's a different thought.

Regardless, I get the feeling that JKR supporters will get their way.
It seems unlikely that a judge would rule against her to set this new
precedence for fair use - judges have been known to make rulings
against convention just to not set a precedent.

My two cents.
