Who owns the sun?
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...ALL-users.html
Quote:
A canny Spanish woman from Galicia - a sun-drenched region on the border with Spain and Portugal - has decided that she owns the star, and has the registration papers to prove it.
Angeles Duran, 49, says that the sun officially belongs to her now, having had the celestial body registered in her name at a local notary office.

Guess we're going to all get invoiced soon.

Ms Duran, who lives in the town of Salvaterra do Mino, said she now wants to slap a fee on everyone who uses the sun and give half of the proceeds to the Spanish government - and 20 per cent to the nation's pension fund.
She would dedicate another 10 per cent to research, another 10 per cent to ending world hunger - and would keep the remaining 10 per cent herself.

Well now I know who to sue when I get a sun-burn or cancer.
She should really slap a warning label on that thing.

This is great, if a whole bunch of people starting suing her it would be comedy gold.

Whoever controls something owns that thing.
She can start charging me for the sun as soon as she can deny me access.
