Can you cite a source on that? I wasn't aware of her being retired and I find it hard to believe that someone with her skill would be unemployed.

I guess my only direct source is that every time she's spoken of working as a paralegal, it's been in the past tense. e.g. her H-Online interview:

It would certainly have been impractical for long stretches of Groklaw's history for PJ to have a day job.

Interesting, thanks.
