Me: So what would you do if an elephant came to your store and wanted to buy Ar Tonelico?
T: I'd sell it to him. But he'd have to show ID if he wanted God of War.

Bad idea LII!

The Cornell Legal Information Institute runs a web service with, among other things, law information and court opinions.

It also runs a website begging to be hacked, as when you cause one of its forms to have its guts fall out, it spills some interesting guts:
If you view the full picture, you happen to notice that it shows the EXACT perl code being executed. Most of the time, when a process fails, it will fail at the point of vulnerability, so that kind of thing gives the hacker exactly what they want.

Their raw error is even more helpful. It's like they attached an "ls" of their directory free of charge.
