Thanks to wserra for kindly providing feedback.

Is this the first time Quatloos has been cited in academic literature?

Nope, Donald Netolitzky, a lawyer working for the Court of Queen's Bench in Edmonton (and, from time to time, a Quatloos poster), has written and had published numerous academic papers on the sovereign movement. He's cited Quatloos in most of them.

All in all a very well written and compelling read for those of us who have had to rub up against the fantasy promoters.

But I have a sense that the legal community, at least in terms of civil practice in the US, is only gradually going to come around to your view that it is a "serious problem."

The criminal bar should pay more attention, but I fear it the pseudo legal purveyors will remain in "sideshow" status because unless the perpetrator(s) engage in mass-violence such cases rarely make the news most people listen to or watch.

It's akin to many of the medical maladies that just don't have the kind of depth and breadth of mainstream maladies like breast cancer or heart disease; they operate below the horizon of most of the population.

Again - very well done, and kudos for the incredible depth of links and resources for the curious.

Oh, I should have remembered Neto's papers - I read and cited them, after all. Damn. No Quatloos trophy for me.

Thanks for the kind words, JRB. I agree that it's an overlooked problem. Doing what I can to shed light on it, but obvs it's not going to be that easy.

Polished, compelling and thoroughly documented. Nice work, Gannibal.
