Lawyering Up: Class 10, Wed, Period 2

"Nice to see you all back," Nathan said as he handed out the usual packets. "Today we're talking about Internet Law, or cyber law, as some people call it. We've already covered the practical problem of how internet technology moves too fast for precedent to keep up. Now let's talk about another problem with that technology: far too many lawmakers do not understand what the internet is. I can assure you that more than one member of Congress still thinks it's a series of tubes.

"So today I want you to pretend that you're trying to advocate for a law related to the internet where you have to find a way to explain what the internet is. Metaphors, diagrams, whatever it takes. Pair up and take turns being the politician who doesn't get it. Extra credit to anybody who figures out an actual law to argue for."

She bit her lip.

We broke up the day before the angels got me. So for me it's been two years, but for him it's been just a week. God, this is hard. I think I need a drink!

He looked at her apologetically.

Understandable! If you'd like, I'll buy.

Seriously? I'd like that. But...

She hesitated. Maybe... Would you mind drinking in my room instead of out? I don't know if I want the whole world watching me get trashed.

And there's no need to remember how to get back to the dorms. Count me in.

He hoped her roommate was okay with this plan.

Excellent. Stop by whenever. I don't have a roommate so that makes things easier too. We can maybe watch a movie and drink and just... not think about things.

Lucas grinned as he tossed back another note.

Even better. I'll see you there!

She smiled over at him, nodding, and then turned back to try to pay attention to at least part of the lecture.
