Hiya, Dorktor!

Let me condense some of your idiocy to save room:

****

 *>This is indeed very correct.

 *>Correct again!

 *>Fully agreed!

****

There... 

<< they can go fuck themselves.>>

 *>Most of them have done exactly that already and just don't 
know it yet.

Hmmm... I'd say most folks would know it, Tom.  :)

 *><<There is 'some' reason for copyright law, and those 
reasons should be 
 *>appreciated, even if there were no 'laws' to 'protect' 
them. But how far
 *>will  you people take it?>>

 *>As far as the silent majority in the community will 
tolerate - it seems.

Well, the silent majority seems to tolerate you and your 
thieving ways, your babbling, and bed wetting well enough.

 *><<It is only data now, only sequences of bits, only ideas, 
only knowledge.
 *>The  day is coming when 'pirates' will be able to copy 
anything and
 *>everything... little molecule sized robots, creating exact 
replicas of
 *>yachts, ferraris and the crown jewels.>>

 *>It does seem to be in the works toward that sort of 
technology.

Hey!  Maybe they can duplicate your brain!  Wait.. It would 
have to exist first, wouldn't it...

 *><<That will be illegal copyright infringement too. And 
you'll justify that
 *>too. The poor were meant to be poor, right? Ha ha, flame 
me all you want.
 *>And eat shit and die, while you're at it.>>

 *>Justification is what those sort of people (the Usenet 
lamer or should  I
 *>say flamer) lives for.  It's all that drives them and 
keeps them going  with
 *>their compulsive and obsessive ways. In the final act, 
they most  likely
 *>will eat what you suggest they eat and end as you suggest 
they  will end.  

Heh heh... I just love it when you get in these spiels and it 
sounds just like you're talking about RosyWanker.  :)

 *>As to your saying: "The poor were meant to be poor, 
right?" - well, a 
 *>person is only as poor as they perceive they are.  A 
person can have very 
 *>little money on hand and still be very rich in many other 
ways.

Yes, but most of us don't collect bellybutton lint and used 
crack pipes like you, Chuck.

 *>As to all the rants and fuss about the pirate sites and 
their illegal
 *>archives, FYI, currently - there are NO such sites in the 
Apple II community
 *>that are  online for public access (unless you happen to 
live in Australia
 *>and can thus  access the Asimov mirror site - there).  If 
it's still online
 *>for the public  access - it's restricted to public access 
from only within
 *>Australia.

Well, I'm sure Australia has its share of Turlettes too... 
I'm certain their all jumping for joy.  :)

 *>As to what the future holds with it all, well...it's all 
well preserved on
 *>CD's. Will any of it ever become available online for 
public access world
 *>wide again from such sites as it was in the past?

Sure, if you get permission from the copyright holders.  Dumb 
question, Susan.

 *>I'd guess time will tell and we shall see!

Oh.. Shooting for profound again?  Keep trying.  :)

 *>Cheers, Tom
