It appears that residents of North Dakota who want to use eBay are going to have to learn to speak quickly because they are auctioneeers. Glenn Reynolds observes on Tech Central Station:
It's easy to make fun of this kind of thing, and people are. One blogger observes: "Soon enough, governments will force these guys to wear a suit and tie in front of their personal computers."
But even though North Dakota's proposal is being targeted for mockery, it's also being targeted for emulation, as quite a few other states are considering similar proposals. This seems like a dreadful idea to me.
It looks like a dreadful idea to me too, Glenn. If it gets up, how long will it last?
