Tim, 

It's a pity you can't see the genuine concern for the health of the ST I
displayed in the first message through your emotion.

This "attitude" is is derived from finding Diamond Back on no less than 20
BBS's within 3 months of it's initial release.

I dislike losing hard earned money through software theft.  If someone came
into your home and stole your TV and then you saw it at the flea market
wouldn't you get upset??  I dislike the tone of your response because I have 
made positive contributions to the ST community. If you can't handle that 
then you should just BE QUIET.

>Hm, a disgruntled (but obviously otherwise gainfully employed) developer, eh?
 
Well, a man's got to eat. 

Hey, this line of discussion is counter productive. Flame off ok?
