Fritz,
See also Michael J. Lynch, The U.S. Code, the Statutes at Large, and Some
Peculiarities of Codification, Legal Reference Servs. Q., 1997 no. 1, at
69, 76-77 ("Lunatic Fringe Demands 'Positive Law'").
Your question asked for an article by a law librarian, but you might
also be interested in:
Paulsen, James W. If at first you don't secede: ten reasons why the
"Republic of Texas" Movement is wrong. 38 S. Tex. L. Rev. 801-821 (1997).
Political alienation in America and the legal premises of the patriot
movement. Wilson Huhn.
Gonzaga Law Review Spring 1999 v34 i3 p417-443
The inane gospel of tax protest: resist rendering unto Caesar - whatever
his demands. Chrisopher S. Jackson.
Gonzaga Law Review Spring 1997 v32 n2-3 p291-329
Finally, although this is definitely not the article you remember from
some time ago, I recommend Mary Whisner, Black's, Bouvier's, and
Tinkerbell, 92 L. Libr. J. 99-106 (2000) ("Practicing Reference" column).
