Many opinions of the evidence, especially on Groklaw, but also elsewhere,
including here. But none of these people offering opinions have really seen

offered by Darl at the start. But NONE of the actual evidence came from
him. It was researched by a team of expert witnesses on both sides, of
which I was one.
