Questions
(Why aren't you reading this at the new website?)

---
--Is sending spy planes equipped with heat-sensing cameras over residential neighborhoods to identify, and make public, "energy wasteful" homes a legitimate function of government? Stated differently: Is there a right to be wasteful? Is there a right to be wasteful privately? (Via TechDirt.)

--Detained at the airport for three peaches?

--One for my Jewish readers this Rosh Hashanah: "Torah timeshare"?

--Is refusing to authorize gynecomastia correction for a 13-year old boy "child abuse"? Would your answer change if the refuser were Medicaid? (Via Kevin, M.D.)

--A classic question from the tort archives: Is falsely being called gay — monogamously gay, in fact — actionable defamation?
