Excellent!

Why someone would want to pirate the few remaining commercial
titles (or soon to be released commercial titles) for a venerable
model like the IIGS is a mystery to me.  I can understand (but DO
NOT condone and vehemently frown on) stealing a copy to use to
avoid paying for it.  That at least makes sense, though it is vile.
Why would someone take a yet to be released copy and put it
up on a web site for others to grab, though?  Is it for fun?  Why
destroy a chance to have NEW software when NEW software is
already so rare and hard to come by?

Can't understand it...just can't understand it...
