Nathan - I have to correct you. I have never, and never will, engage in
usenet flaming. There is a big difference between flaming and telling the
truth. Some may percieve that I have been engaged in flame fests, but
pointing out in a public forum that someone is a low-life for selling
others' copyrighted software is actually, in my mind, quite an honorable
thing to do.

Just remember, it wasn't me who uttered the words: "The only reason I ever
sold pirated software was to support my crack habit." I merely repeated
that admission when confronting a dishonest and amoral individual who has
abused the Apple II development community for too many years.

That abuse is about to end, as the Apple II development community has had
it and plans to reveal all it knows if the abuser doesn't leave our
community alone. 

The above is not to be construed as a flame; it is merely a warning. And, a
slight correction to you Nathan on what is, and what is not, a flame.
