Won't Robert be suprised when an FBI agent shows up at his door with a search warrent? Even if his statement above won't go far in prosecuting him, it probably could get a search warrent out, and then his stash of illegal copies would do the rest. Hey, maybe this is how to stop piracy. Just get everybody to brag on the net of how much they've pirated, and have the FBI listen in. They'd better start hiring LOTS of agents. :-) Robert also comments about not being able to afford the programs. Hey, neither can I--that's why I have < 5. But I have tons of PD stuff and its great! So allow me to take this opportunity to thank all the writers--Great job people! Sorry, but to list all their names would take pages. ======================================= = Simon Rademacher = = rademach%tramp@boulder.colorado.edu =
