Circuit judge overturns verdict in Twist case

RE: Groove... I'm so frustrated!
My Groove screen name is JimRoepcke. If you want to share a space with me, please do -- I'd love to see what other people are doing with Groove. Thanks!
Update: As the day goes on I'm getting more and more pissed off about not being able to groove with the people I communicate with on a daily basis.

Amen.
