Why is it that you people are always trying to make martyr's of the damn 
software developers?????  

Now **READ** this over and over, until you understand.

MARVIN!!! PIRACY HAS ALWAYS EXISTED. IT WAS EVEN MORE RAMPANT IN THE EARLY 
80'S THAN IT IS NOW.  IF YOU WANT TO PRETEND IT DOESN'T EXIST, THEN FINE. THE 
ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IT. GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK 
SKULL. IF THE DEVELOPERS LEAVE NOW BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY SEE, THEN THEY ARE
FOOLS. THINGS ARE NO DIFFERENT NOW THEN THEY WERE 6 MONTHS AGO.

I have never seen a bigger group of idiots in all my life. You people live in 
shell shock of everything you cant understand, and you fear everything you 
dont believe in. Get a grip!! I think you guys or more responsible for the 
developers leaving than the pirates are. I wouldn't develop for the
apple // if I had to listen to your sniveling all day!!


Dats my $.02  (on top of the $4.95 i have already put in).
