Wow, I created a page! I'm trying to sort out my thoughts on the lecture of October 1, 2009, and I thought that Professor Moglen's comment in the GraspingTheNetTalk page would be a good starting point.
Line: 227 to 227
 I find it ironic in a class with a central theme of the free exchange of ideas and information that if I disagree with you I will fail. From this point forward my official position on everything related to this class will align with your beliefs.

Brett,

I respond to this post with some hesitation. What motivates me to nevertheless post is a hope that these words are helpful.

I understand you are frustrated, but I believe that you actually would be shooting yourself in the foot if you uncritically aligned your beliefs to Professor Moglen's. It is my impression that the gauntlet as laid down is not a challenge to agree, but to defend disagreement. I know that you are trying to do so; I would read the prior comments to be a request to do so more empirically. I have spoken with you enough to know that you are a responsible and intelligent student. I am confident you can meet the challenge.
