Brute aged 80yrs, is fiddling with his catheter in an aged care hospital. He pulls it out finally and goes to the ward's computer desk and logs onto Boxrec, starts a new thread, which says "Bruce Myron Grinsted didn't win that fight with Phillip Glenn Johnnsy on TV Ringside in 1971."

Research anthologists at Boxrec, on a large Government Science grant, immediately reply back to Brute...."We have no history of those names or fight ever taking place Brute"

Brute replies, "Woulds-ya look at Glenn Mattioli versus Johnnsy Grinsted then? Does that ring a bell?"

Finally the researchers find this old 2008 thread, where Brute has smudged the grinsted name with his small offerings. "Mmm serious stuff here Brute", they say " you should have checked your facts before you slandered the grinsteds back then, this is a serious indictable offence these days, in Cyberland, and retrospectively punishable too, if you have not said sorry since that slander; punishable by death or hard labour in fact - we have no option but to send you a summons to attend court Brute."

A few seconds pass, and Solicitor Flash Starman Galbally arrives promptly at Brute's aged care hospital, plugs his lie detector onto Brute's thumb immediately and says to Brute, "Do you tell lies?" Brute replies, "No !".... Flash Starman Galbally just shakes his head at Brute and says, "No jury will believe you Brute - this lie detecter sheet sure doesn't believes you either! If you are convicted, it will be death by needle, or hard labour at the Wyalla World synthetic food chain."

An appointment for the hearing is set on line for hearing within the hour. Flash Starman Galbally says to Brute , "The only way we can beat this Brute is by using an old precedent called "The Poor Ole Duffer Clause", a succesful, old precedent, for people who often speak before engaging their brain. In order to enter this precendent and to offset the charge, you will be required to stand in front of the computer screen camera today and say to the Cyber Judge and Jury loudly and three times, 'I AM SORRY, I AM JUST A SILLY OLE DUFFER' " Are you prepared to do this Brute.?? Brute says " No!" and puts his catheter back in and switches on his TV and pulls the sheet over his head.

Ex-parte, the case goes on, on the computer. Flash plea-argues in vain, 'that Brute's catheter would not contaminate any of the food packages'. The jury is not listening; 'The needle' is on its way to the hospital.

End this now Brute, say sorry, the grinsteds are forgiving souls.
