@TGHC: I wasn't even thinking of that. An in-game ad for the game?

@TGHC - they might do us for breach of copyright? It would be petty but possible. We're safer if Oolite inspired "close to reality" ads - You could always so MacWOorld....
BTW, IANAL (that would be LB)

Grr No it woudn't!
I am a Criminal Barrister, which means I charge a fixed fee all in. And it would be a criminal offence for me to accept instructions on a per hour basis. We leave that sort of criminal activety to the CPS and Police! (Can we adjorn for 8 weeks so the CPS and Police can copy the case papers. For some reason it takes them longer in the 21st C than a Monk in the 10C takes to copy papers.)
Ins. to Defend or Proecute (Cab Rank Principle applies!) a Rape Sentence with 2,000 pages to read. 5 hours engaged. Fee = £60, Train Fare to Norwich CC £64.

@LB - apologies - Didn't realise there was such a substantial difference. I shall check my facts (or at least my insinuations!) more carefully next time!
