Fortunately, Edie is an unambiguously female name,

Is it? My first glance would assume it’s some variant spelling of Eddie. Never run into anyone called Edie.

In most of the world, $800,000 is enough money that you and your wife would never have to work another day in your lives. Even in Canada that’s 20-ish years of the median household income.

It’s like “I play baseball” vs “I play sports”.

It’s not that difficult to convince people who enjoy little league to try standard baseball.

People complain about it a lot, but I’ve never actually ran into a system that uses any maths beyond what a five-year-old should be capable of.

IIRC, Japan doesn’t have punitive damages in civil cases, so the couple would have to prove they’ve been financially negatively affected to be awarded anything.

The bible is not a credible historical source, and is also missing the 2000 most recent years of history. The middle east has had long periods of peace and prosperity.

Regardless of his intent, he is correct as to the law.

It’s a strict liability offence, so no.
