One interesting development which is outside Derek's mind is that
apparently Florida rewrote their academic fraud law.

As back ground information, about seven years ago Florida was the first
state to inact a law making academic fraud such as Derek's illegal. The
Florida Supreme Court ruled the wording unconstitutional so the law
couldn't be enforced but in their ruling the court stated that the
basic intent was good and in the public good. Since then almost a dozen
states have enacted laws making various forms of academic fraud
explicitly illegal.

Apparently recently Florida reconstituted their academic fraud law so
it appears to me (a non lawyer) that Derek's continued claims to a
Ph.D. are now illegal within his state of residence. So, we can now
apparently add law breaker to Mr. Smart's list of amusing
transgressions. :-)
