"A week ago, the following question
was asked on a popular Israeli web forum that discusses legal questions: The
author says that he and his wife agreed with their neighbor and his wife that
they will exchange partners for a day: the neighbor will be with the author's
wife for one day, and after the neighbor's wife returns from her current trip
abroad, she will be with the author for a day. As you can already imagine, the
author writes that the first part happened, but when the neighbor's wife
returned from abroad, the neighbor and his wife denied any such agreement and
ignored the author's messages. The author says that he has text messages on his
phone to prove the agreement and that he spent a considerable amount of money
on beverages for the intended day with the neighbor's wife, and asks the
readers of the web forum whether he has a cause for legal action against the
neighbor and his wife for violating the agreement.
A link to the question on the
web forum (the actual Hebrew text is somewhat more colorful/offensive): http://www.lawforums.co.il/SingleMessage.aspx?MessageID=1186029
Indeed, in repugnant markets
(at least ones in which an altruist donor beginning a "chain" is
unlikely...) simultaneity is key."
