They may be morons

When deciding to tell people that they are morons, please let them know here or on their userpage instead of on an article page.

Also, Lucy-marie, if you go to the person talk page, where I know you've ben quite active, you'll find a complete definition for person (pl), from the OED, when it tells you in which cases which plural is correct. Both "people" and "persons" are plural forms of "person", and they are used at different times. I'm a grammar stickler as much as everyone else, but stickle correctly please.

Pretty blatant error

Probably the term "legal fiction" in this article needs to be replaced with the term "natural person". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mzed (talk • contribs) 19:07, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Lead revision

"In jurisprudence, a natural person is a person (in legal meaning. i.e., one who has its own legal personality) that is a human being, as opposed to a legal person, which may be a private (i.e., business entity or non-governmental organization) or public (i.e., government) organization." A single parenthesis is in a sentence "...person is a person (in legal meaning." This structure is confusing. Good grammar says that the beginning parenthesis and end parenthesis should be in the same sentence. Also, saying "in legal meaning" is redundant because jurisprudence was already stated.
