In French, the Roman encampments around the Gaul village are named Aquarium, Babaorum (rhum cake), Laudanum and Petibonum (petit bonhomme, little man). Also the musician is named Assurancetourix, all-risk insurance.

The old man (Geriatrix) is Agecanonix (“âge canonique,” an expression meaning venerable age but sometimes used ironically for young people, referring to the catholic “canonical” ages for sacraments, etc The smith (Fulliautomatix) is Cétautomatix, (c’est automatique, “it’s automatic” or “it happens automatically”) The fishmonger (Unhygienix) is Ordralfabétix (ordre alphabétique, alphabetic order) Some romans I remember are Marcus Sacapus (sac à puces, fleabag); Nenpeuplus (n’en peut plus, can’t take it anymore). There’s some Vikings named Neuillisursen (Neuilly-sur-Seine) and Kerøsen (Kerosene). Some Normans are named Olaf Grossebaf (grosse baffe, big punch) and Sténograf (stenographer). There’s Egyptians named Courdeténis (court de tennis, tennis court), Tournevis (tourne-vis, screwdriver) and Ginfis (gin fizz). Some goths named Périféric (Périphérique, as in the road around Paris) and Téléferic (téléphérique, like a ski lift). And the Swiss banker is Zurix (Zurich). I’ll have to go back to my books to see more.

I'm the rear end in a top hat who wouldn't flinch about cutting down several acres of trees because I want to see some rocks. Can a lawyer in this thread please tell me how to sue the world to force it to rotate around me please? Is that a state issue or a federal issue?

It should be noted that after I cut all these trees that are blocking my mountain view it's my intention to build some trails for my Internal Combustion off road vehicles that do not have catalytic converters and usually leak oil.

supposing a person's property has no carve-out for someone else to have mineral rights etc, so they "own" (within the limits of real estate law) the ground under their house as well; does the law envisage that the boundaries extend downward at exactly 90 degrees to the surface of the Earth, or, does it understand that in theory you'd own a wedge or inverted-pyramid shape extending to a point at the center of the Earth where all lines converge?

Nice piece of fish posted:Don't listen to this idiot, OP murdered the entwives! Hmm, would Ent murder be the fullest evolution of the mighty Tree Law? God only knows the price on chopping down a tree that gained sentience in the dawning of the First Age of Arda; probably the real reason Saruman lost Isengard and wound up fleeing in abject poverty. Zero VGS posted:Speaking of, I want to settle an argument. If I got a laser so powerful that I could project an image of a giant dong onto the moon, can anyone take legal action? Pretty sure at that level of laser power law enforcement generally involves manly heroes in costumes breaking in to stop your mad schemes.

Here’s a law review article for you - https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1141&context=facultyarticles - which suggests that it’s probably to be interpreted as a wedge, according to Pufendorf as interpreted by Blackstone.

I think the issue is not value - but rather that the value is not greater than the cost of extraction.

I vaguely remember reading that property rights still go up to infinity, but planes and satellites don't count as a trespass because they don't affect your use of the property. No idea if it's true.

Also you'll have to get through the mantle to get some of that sweet iron core, and given mantle composition is also like 8% iron, it feels kinda wasteful to ignore that stuff on your way down.
