- I find it somewhat distressing that someone in misc.writing, of
- all places, would be asking for help in violating other writers'
- copyrights. Dave Barry and Douglas Adams, among others, have not
- appreciated the massive electronic copying of their work without
- authorization or payment.
-
- Note that maintainers of such FTP sites as those mentioned above may
- well be liable for prosecution. Don't involve yourself in this, please.
