But outside of Court, Amazon touts its patent-pending Amazon Honor System as a way for Web sites to use 1-Click shopping technology for voluntary payment transactions - most notably for 9-11 donations and campaign contributions - that do not involve consumer goods or Amazon-specified prices, which the Judge argues are essential 1-Click ingredients.""

<p>my favourite moment is one that didn't actually get many laughs. "i always thought in a democracy, and again i don't really know because i've only lived here, that in a democracy ..." hilarity.</p>
