You should consider subscribing through one of the normal CDR nodes, the toad.com site is unreliable.

come to expect to find people who may not be "mannered intellectuals", but who are certainly not erstwhile defenders of intellectual property, particularly asthe concept is applied to software today.

Now just exactly what makes you believe that I want other people deciding what happens to the results of my labor? I support Open Source software, however not to the extent I want somebody else to decide without my input whether any given piece happens to Open Source.

requests for warez on these lists, but moral outrage at the thought of software piracy was not one I expected to read here.

Then perhaps you need to work on your morality.

Especially as I hear nobody complaining about the advertisement for pornography

So what? How exactly does pornography map to stolen software?

Unlike most of you lucky people in the States, I pay through the nose for on-line time.

Sounds like a personal problem to me.

Perhaps priorities could do with rethinking.

I agree, you need to do some rethinking. ____________________________________________________________________ Lawyers ask the wrong questions when they don't want the right answers.
