This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "circuit court." In any

Hmm. Have an eBay auction, which would generate multiplier effects
as the dollars cycle through the economy. I'll ignore the surely
unintentional but nevertheless revolting puns. That said, you've
amplified your intentions vis-a-vis lawyers, and your views on the
matter have electrified us all. Hopefully, we'll find the energy
to act on the latent potential of our dislike for them and shortly
move directly from our a passive state of merely hating them.
