  Please, don't get me wrong. I don't support piracy, and I certainly don't
subscribe to the "all forms of data must be shared" school of anarchy. It's
just that I have this (skewed?) view that an issue of Antic is no different
from an issue of Time, and if I can send a photocopy of a Time article to a
friend with no problems, then what's the difference with a type-in
program...

  Like I said, though, I mean no harm.

						--R.J.
						B-)

P.S. Moot point: The "Please do not distribute copies of our type-in
programs" disclaimers in Antic/Analog/etc. are kind of obscure, if you ask me.
I never even notices those messages until I was leafing through all of the
small print in Antic the other day...
