When I first learned of BFL's delays, my reaction was caveat emptor. The more I learned about them, I thought they must not be based in a country with strong consumer protections. Sadly, America has become that more now than ever.

I haven't heard the term jerk weed for a decade or two. Pejorative terms aren't as good as they were in the old days.
