small flame on

 Why is it that when someone mentions copying VHS tapes someone else
jumps to the conclusion that copyright material is being duplicated?
Maybe the original poster of this note is duplicating pictures of
his kids for the grandparents! Personally I often copy a tape that
I have made with a portable VCR and a camera, mostly editing out junk and
saving a polished, finished product that can be shown to friends, relatives,
etc. Lighten up and help the guy with what probably is a legitimate request.

flame off.
