Okay, it's retraction time.  I didn't actually re-read the newsletter
before posting this, and my memory was imperfect.  Upon re-reading,
it was only a pre-release version of MockTerminal that Brown was
trying to quash, not the Mock accessories in general, and the versions
currently available on Compuserve and other places really are 
shareware.  Sorry for any crisis of conscience the previous posting
may have caused.
