Take me for instants I can fully comprehend Roy and his views on it all.
I listen to what Roy says also.  It's not that I refuse to listen - it's simply
that my views on it all are not in harmony with those of Roy.  I think Roy has
many valid points he covers but, those points are his personal views on the
issues and do not change my views on anything.

Roy and I see many issues in the same way and many others we DO NOT!

<<The first one is about as likely to happen as the world ending before you
finish reading this sentence. The second one is the only real solution to this
otherwise annoying problem. Do I use copyrighted 15-20 year old
software that I never bought? YES. Do I care that it is copyrighted? YES.
Would I like to see the copyrights lifted? YES. If the rest of us can agree
that these statements are true in general for all of us, then we shouldn't
be discussing the problem anymore. Instead, we should discuss solutions,
preferrably on a case-by-case basis.>>

About the world ending - well I have my own personal thoughts on when that will
occur.  12/29/2005 is my best gauge of that - t be specific about it.  Thus, as
I personally feel this is the end of it all as we now are involved in it all
within the universal scheme - so to speak - I base all of my activities, logic
and actions on that date as being the final date for mankind and civilization
on planet Earth - as we now know it.   If my end of the world date is wrong -
I'll know that on 12/30/2005 and post that I was wrong on this newsgroup then. 
Until then - that's the way I see it!

So, I'll DITTO your three above YES'  and raise you one 'YES' - preferrably on
a case-by-case basis - is the only logical way to evaluate anything
presented for cause and action in the world we all live in today.   I
personally shall simply have to wait and see what tomorrow offers and brings
me.  I do everything I do - because I believe it is the RIGHT thing to do. 
Nothing or nobody will change my views on anything but -> ME!
