24. They should initially ignore them.

They need to be slapped in the face with the fact that once THEY set precedent, BOTH sides can use it. And will. If we don't make THAT point, they have won on this issue.

THEN we can voluntarily comply, because we have PROVEN, thanks to THEM. that we don't have to if we don't WANT to. Just MAKE us.

Neener, neener, neener.

NO smiley inferred.
