       | Canada, Netherlands, Brazil, and Argentina.

       | The best time to do something about Chevron was when Donziger was
       | as far away from the case as possible, and the best thing
       | Donziger could do for any environmental cause today would be to
       | _stay_ far, far away from the case, as far as reasonably as
       | possible. He won 't.
       | 
       | And Chevron's retaliation against him is a disaster area, rife
       | with injustice, too, so you can hate just about everyone involved
       | with this case.

         | attention on them, not this bothsidesism.
