Here are some insider tricks for diagnosing and repairing TCP/IP Networks."〔Auebarch, Karl. "Trouble-Busters:Does your TCP/IP stand for trouble on your network?

In 2011, Auerbach proposed an amendment to the United States Constitution that would eliminate the recognition of corporations and other group entities as persons or citizens. The text reads as follows: "Corporate and other aggregate forms of organization are neither Persons nor Citizens under this Constitution and shall have neither protections, rights, nor legal standing under this Constitution. This Amendment shall not be construed to deny or disparage the power of Congress or the Several States to enact legislation that defines rights, powers, limitations, liabilities, and standing of such corporate and other aggregate forms of organization." 〔http://cavebear.com/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Karl Auerbach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
