No problem; you made it a bit clear here what you were trying to say. What you're asking for would probably make someone quite wealthy, and would be a great startup idea. In the context of the thread, it was kind of unclear if you were talking more about my comment or your idea.
I recognize that such a utility would make it harder for lawyers to make money, since a hefty chunk of their value-add is removed. I'm okay with that. It would be even awesomer when local laws aren't de facto locked away from public perusal through paywalls, though that probably doesn't apply to this particular case.
I honestly don't care if you're making it up. I want to know what's actually on the books. About 20 minutes ago, a mailing list informed me that Tetris has been used to treat flashbacks and Chess has been used to treat ADHD. A 5-second google was able to confirm that this isn't complete bullshit. Googling "states that make driving with a television illegal" gets me nothing but random things about driver's licenses and illegal immigrants.
Seriously. Full-text search on up-to-date records of law. That's all I ask.
