Maybe Mr. Gates would rather spend the weekend in a federal lock-up?

DU'ers could hang together New Years Eve and picket the place. Rich people just love the hell out of that.

the order is specifically going to prohibit alcohol. Most New Years Eve parties I've been to (or thrown) involve a lot of alcohol. Even if he abides by the order, who wants to hang around a bunch of drunks while you're sober?
