God created heaven and the earth. Quickly, he was faced with a class action [etc.] (posted by Helen of Troy)
Does anyone have the letter, in like vein, I read about a year ago? The local EPA or DNR or the like had charged a gentleman with allowing branches and fallen trees, on his land, to obstruct a small steam. He replied that beavers (not he) had built that dam: if the government wanted to deal with it they'd have to write to the dam beavers, find someone to translate into their dam beaver language, and (since the beavers were indigent) appoint a dam attorney for them. etc., etc.
I believe this was an actual case, out of Michigan. Apparently Helen of Troy (our poster) is not of Troy, Michigan (that is, Helen of Troy is no Spartan), but perhaps Sparteye can illuminate me?
