Yeh, he even copied that roman alphabet and left to right, top to bottom
sequence thing. Someone should slowly torture him to death with rusty
hacksaws, turpentine and belt sanders over a period of weeks. Mike, do you
have any idea how many malnourished children of down and out web designers
nearly starved to death because of your crimes against IP? Why, if there is
a hell, then God should send you there twice just to make up for all that
you've done. It wouldn't suprise me if you were a demon from that very
place, sent up to thwart the good deeds and intentions of pious intellectual
property owners and advocates. It is a mortal sin to even have something
vaguely similar to someone else's idea, or idea of an idea, or idea of an
idea of an idea. Don't you know this? What are they teaching our children in
school nowdays, that they don't know that stealing ideas, or ideas about
ideas, or ideas about ideas about ideas is a mortal sin, that could put
their very immortal soul in jeopardy of going to hell not twice, but twice
twice! After highschool, they should send children to 24 years of
intellectual property awareness school, because it's at least twice as
important as reading and writing and all that other crap.  Besides, likely,
someone owns the trademarks to reading and writing, or at the very least,
its a trade secret (a very important but not as well known form of
intellectual property), and if so, then by learning those skills, you are
commiting idea/concept piracy, trademark infringement and mortal sin. It
doesn't matter that they may be dead, even long dead, because trademark
doesn't expire, and if so, then that intellectual property belongs to their
estate, and would go through probate, so that rightful heirs could lay claim
to the trademarks of Reading and Writing�.  We all know, or should know,
that it doesn't matter whether they realize we're reading or writing, or
care to try and make a profit on reading and writing, or even whether they
would give permission to read and write for free if asked, because no one
here has even bothered to try and track down the person that owns the
trademarks of reading and writing to bother to ask! I mean, really, how much
trouble can it be to track down the person that invented treading and
writing (or their rightful heirs) and ask if you can read and write! So much
trouble that you would risk commiting capitol felonies, mortal sin, and
bathing in the fires of hell for not two eternities, but four?!?! C'mon
people. And by the way, if you do gain permission to release reading and
writing to the public domain, please include the email headers so that we
can verify the validity. Also, wouldn't be a bad idea to get it in writing,
inked in the blood of a newborn baby, by a team of one thousand and one
corporate attourneys, those noble defenders of righteousness and goodness,
notarized by President George Washington. Mike, is any of this sinking in?
What you did was wrong, and if you happen to be attacked tonight, by
infernal beasts that smell of brimstone and cackle as if their twisted
tormented souls have forgotten greater suffering than you could concieve of,
you'll know why. When I was in school, we were taught the Ten Commandments�,
but maybe you weren't so fortunate. I'll give you a little reminder.

1. Thou shalt not Use the Name of The Lord in Vain, Without his express
written permission stating the use, context, and your agreement to pay
royalties no less than $100, but up to and including 1.5% profits derived
from such usage plus a base fee of $1500.

2. Thou shalt not infringe trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets,
publicity rights, or any other intellectual property, imagined or
unimagined, in any way shape or form, including but not limited to fair use,
satire, parody, and critiques, nor shall thou use any discovered or "public
domain" intellectual property, unless thou can prove before God himself that
said public domain IP is indeed public domain.

3.Thou shalt not defend those vile demons, known as heathens, the fallen, or
alternatively as intellectual property infringer apologists, and thou must
go out of thy way to ostracize and torment them until they day that they
die, when Satan will take over at this duty.

4. Thou shalt not question the wisdom of God's annointed and chosen, the
Corporation, or his spokesmen, the corporate attourney, not even if they
want to sell your 11 year old daughter into prostitution, and carve your
wife into people steaks for a business luncheon.

5. Thou shalt not think any thought that thou can reasonably be certain that
someone else has ever thought, in all the history of the universe, because a
copyright need not be registered to be valid.

6. Thou shalt not use Napster.

7. Thou shalt not reverse engineer. All merchandise are closed black boxes,
no user serviceable parts within.

8. Thou shalt not remember in clarity or detail, those licensed
entertainments that thou hast paid fees to enjoy, nor shall you repeat them
to others, not even the highlights.

9. Thou shalt sing the praise and preach the advantages of a pay-per-use
society.

10. Thou shalt be Happy About it.

There. Mike, don't keep a copy of this on your hard drive, it's copyrighted.
Carve these into your forearm with sharp stick, and we might find it in our
hearts to forgive you. (Remember to paraphrase, the exact wordings are
intellectual property). Then again, maybe not, but it's a start. You'll
still go to hell, but maybe it is possible that Our Lord God� might find it
in His Infinite mercy to relent and make you suffer only 1 eternity in hell.
Copyright infringement threatens to destroy the entire purpose of the
universe, if left unchecked. Do your part to rescue humanity, the universe,
and poor malnourished starving children of unemployed web designers, and
stomp a Turlette.
