For the future reference of all posters, the United States has joined
the Berne International Copyright Convention, which means that the
text is copyright by default, even if not explicitly stated.  I doubt
PacTel would be too upset about this message getting spread 'round,
but forewarned is forearmed.

Be seeing you...

[Moderator's Note: The only one I have trouble with here is Dow Jones
and Company / The Wall Street Journal. Those people have screamed a
couple times about stuff 'reprinted without permission' on the net in
one news group or another. Other papers seem to like us discussing their
articles. But Mr. Zerner's point is a good one worth remembering.  PT]
