slang, Schiff's book is a good text for understanding that no matter how much we think we understand the law, ultimately it's the judges who interpret the law. And thusly, I've just heard that an old LP acquaintance of mine was raided. He felt he was following Schiff to the letter. Now he faces years in federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison.

It scarcely matters what Schiff thinks if the judges disagree on the loopholes that Schiff believes he's found. The judges are, for better or worse, the final arbiters. That's how the system works.
