    Jeannie Hunter:I am overwhelmed by the technology I have to master to get on here. However, I am going to start--noting no one else has arrived yet. I am fascinated by "common law." I was married to an attorney who took Prosser for Torts years ago, and I read his classic text, and it was simply hard to put down. I am amazed there is no broad study for everyone of common law in terms of the role it plays in the history of our cultural values. It is a moral code after all, but unlike moral codes in the Bible, or Talmud, or Koran, it is the base of our own LAWS. This is incredible to me. I have wondered if it tied to beliefs of the druid religion--though apparently it was secular in base, evolving over time, with fascinating stories and folklore about the laws. One thing always amazed me, was the lack of duty to strangers. You did not have to help someone found injured on the road. However, maybe in early days there were few strangers and everyone cared for their own. This was changed in Europe with the spread of the Catholic church and hostels, but the Catholic religion is not the base of our laws. It is the old common law tradition. That says something about the old cultures of Europe, it seems to me. I find all this so amazing and so interesting. I am posting this comment, to see if anyone else is out there who may respond. I have other issues as well, and hope people start engaging in conversation.
