              The King Hall Law School USENET FAQ Part 1 of 9
             Frequently Asked Questions at and about King Hall
             (c) Copyright 1995 & 1996 by David F. Prenatt, Jr.


0)  PREFATORY QUESTIONS

0.1)  What is a FAQ?

     A FAQ is an institution on the Internet, a file comprised of answers
     to Frequently Asked Questions (abbreviated FAQ) that constitutes a
     collective community memory.

0.2)  Who wrote this FAQ and why?

     This FAQ was written by me, David F. Prenatt, Jr., 1995 alumnus of the
     University of California, Davis School of Law (King Hall).  I wrote
     this FAQ because I frequently encounter people who ask me questions
     that arise out of my experiences as a former law student and graduate
     of King Hall.  However, I do not speak for the University of
     California, Davis (U.C. Davis) or King Hall.  My opinions are my own.

0.3)  What information is contained in this FAQ?

     The content of this FAQ is inherently unabridged.  I am responsible to
     no one for its content, and no topic is taboo.  However, this FAQ is
     intended to address subjects that are relevant to the members of the
     King Hall community (i.e., "Things I'd Like to Share" or "TILTS").  In
     my personal opinion, certain topics are inappropriate for this FAQ to
     address, so where I think it is appropriate, I direct people to other
     information resources.

0.4)  How reliable is the information contained in this FAQ?

     Caveat Emptor:  The information contained in this FAQ is only as
     reliable as I am.  While I am usually willing to share information
     when I am asked politely, I am under no obligation to save anyone from
     his or her ignorance, and I have no desire to do so.  Specifically, if
     you need legal advice, you should consult a licensed attorney.

0.5)  Can I make copies of this FAQ?

     Yes (for non-profit purposes), and I encourage you to do so.  However,
     to protect yourself from legal liability, you should notify me of any
     use that you make of this FAQ, personal or otherwise.  Specifically,
     if you fail to notify me promptly of any use that you make of this FAQ
     other than your own personal use, any permission that I may have given
     to you to reproduce any version of this FAQ is expressly revoked.
          This FAQ is my personal property and is protected by applicable
     international copyright laws.  All of my rights under those laws are
     expressly reserved, and the permission that I may have given to anyone
     to reproduce the information contained in any version of this FAQ can
     be revoked by me at any time.  If you have any doubts about whether
     your use of this FAQ is permissible under the law, you should consult
     an attorney.

          colleague at King Hall, Class of 1997, who founded the USENET

          Prenatt (one of the most brilliant systems analysts of all time),
