Cow Bells to Remain in Mountains

Judgement has been given in the case of the cow bells, see below, "Bells of the Cows"

1. Every cow may have its own cow bell
2. At a distance of more than 100 metres from the house of the plaintiff, the cows may ring their bells for 24 hours out of 24
3. At a distance of less than 100 metres from the plaintiff's house the cows may not ring their bells from 21.00 hours until 7.00 the following morning
4. The demand of the plaintiff for 4,000 euros in compensation for the nusiance of the cow bells is refused
5. There is no right of appeal

Quiet Bangkok applauds this wise decision. By contrast, if a farmer were to come to the city and take legal action against the noise of cars, could he expect to be paid compensation and city life to come to a stop? Let each one seek out the environment that suits him best!
