The Norwegian Consumer Council (NCC) is advising Internet users not to sign letters admitting guilt for sharing movies on P2P networks. Some file sharers have been targeted with letters from Norway's Simonsen Advokatfirma DA on behalf of the movie industry, but these letters have all only reached ISPs so far, who have yet to budge.

It's amazing, don't you think, that anyone with half-a-marble in their head, would freely admit to a law firm that he or she might have downloaded a movie?
Hi there! How are you today? Lovely weather we've been having lately, eh? Oh by the way, have you ever managed to download a movie here or there?
Uhhh,... we'll yeah, I guess so - just maybe once or twice, I think.
DING-DING-DING!! Alert! Alert! Admission Of Guilt! HOME PIRATE! SUE! SUE! SUE!
I think it's an even more ballsy, and/or bonehead question for an attorney to be asking in the first place. Perhaps this law firm feels that some of us just 'fell off the turnip truck', I guess.
Now think about this what kind of stupid person is going to admit they pirated something on top of that how many people would sign such a letter and in a country where everything is pirated to movies to even software and video games do to the fact they are to expensive would even admit they pirated something.

Oh, yes! You got all the basic, good stuff there.
Beef, potatoes, onions, carrots, and turnips. ALL this stuff tastes 100% better when you get it from a roadside vegetable stand or country fair rather than your local supermarket. And don't forget to add (maybe) a half-cabbage in there, and believe it or not, you might want to dump in a can or two of beef gravy into the mix (makes a BIG difference sometimes).
We'll have to come up with some tasty high-definition recipies for our members, zorb43, and feature them in a new section called "The AfterDawn Kitchen", waddaya think? (Klingons look weird in an apron though). :-P
