LCG-remind, which I got from this net, says in its documentation that "If you use it for more than 30 days, you must pay the registration fee of $12.95." There is legal stuff in the preceding paragraph that says this is an agreement under copyright. Rahul, did you know that when you distributed it? That is, did you look far enough into the documentation to find that statement? Are you willing to examine with that much care the documentation of every program you post? M. B.
