Docstoc for law school (a.k.a. today's young whippersnappers don't know how good they have it!)

My goodness. Check out the impressive array of law school outlines and other law school and bar exam resources being amassed at Docstoc. Aside from being incredibly useful, my favorite thing about this service is its built in Creative Commons licensing.
