With some trepidation, i dare to rush in.  (Mr Karbowsky, flames to /dev/null.)

More than one person has said to me that they thought this board
(The ATARI ELITE ST ORG. of Pittsburgh) has pirated software.

In the past maybe this was so, maybe not.
Does anyone have some concrete evidence?

Mr D.Karbowsky denies it is so:

In article <4125@cuphub.cup.edu> kar7481@cuphub.cup.edu (Dan Karbowsky;AtariEliteOfPghPa bbs412-384-5609) writes:

 | assume such anyway???  

	[ more nasties deleted ]

If this is a prirate board, perhaps it should be shut down.
If not, accusers should stop throwing stones.


Does the board give the impression of being a Pirate Board?
Does it promise expensive software?

Or, I wonder, is there another board in the neighborhood that has
a similar name?
