Shetland Ponyfilter: small feature request, it may be time to surrender to the litigiousness of the modern world and add a disclaimer to AskMe thread pages.

Do we need a note on the AskMe "post a question" page that says "Please don't ask for advice on how to do something illegal"?

First a bomb guide, now a request for a meth how-to. While these are both interesting posts, they do not seem appropriate for metafilter. Am I crazy?

Matt doesn't want it but it seems a bit harmless to me. Is it illegal to post information here that would enable someone else to do something illegal? Bearing in mind that any possible crime in this case would take place in Portugal. What could happen to Matt+MeFi if we put up enabling information here? Any lawyers?
