From the information given and in the absence of more vowels I would say yes XXX can stand on that platform because it seems their sole purpose for doing so would be to avoid being reamed in a court of law, which shows an awareness of potential enemies, which is not to be discounted, but to answer the specific question can they do it without being paradoxical, no, certainly not, but few of us, or more precisely, none, of us get through a day without being that. Sorry to hear of your oncoming illness, medicate thoroughly and call no one for three days.
i dont know. i agree they are trying to protect themselves somehow in the real world but can they possibly be taken seriously that they want all property rights abolished if in the same document they assert control over a piece of intellectual property, even if they are generous in its usage? its still saying, this is mine but you can borrow it w/o asking as long as you dont break it. that is a far cry from saying, this belongs to noone, use it as you will. like the shrub says, im all for enlightened dictators as long as im the dictator.
