I agree.  The situation is even more difficult if you work for the
government.  It is apparently very difficult, or even impossible to
arrange payment to an individual.  I would like to include some useful
shareware utilities on the starter diskettes we hand out to our users,
but there is no way to compensate the authors every time we hand one
out.
