Have you been following the Jack Thompson story? The vengeful power of the internet, do not disrespect it. Maybe he will end up disbarred.
If you have not, here is a quick summary. He's a flaming asshole attorney with a serious bone to pick about video games. He's been making all sorts of unsubstantiated claims, and most recently a 'satirical' proposal that involved a challenge and a charitable donation. When the challenge was met, he backed out of his charity half. Penny Arcade ended up donating the amount in his name. Various angry emails were exchanged. The legion of PA fans are now flooding the Florida Bar Assoc with complaints, and the FBA are in the process of reviewing the situation (which indeed may result in absolutely nothing) but it gives one hope, in a way.
