My 1st msg to the net, although i've been reading it for quite some time.
In addition, I've just been cautioned about the cost via the 1st-timers'
help msg.

The net could save even more $ by its members not being so quick to take
offense.  Agreed, the forging poster SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE SO, and the
author has every right to proclaim his own innocence, but why not
at least presume the best rather than the worst of the forger?

IE: instead of merely trying to avoid flames,  perhaps he really was
impressed by the software, wanted to share it, and wanted credit to go
where it was due.
