Few people think I am dumb, I am not so sure sometimes.  It does not 
suck to be me.  It is not pirated software, and I quote the iCommune 
license:

quote)

Furthermore, your response was quite slow, and also rude, don't you 
have a problem with someone else on this list about this?
I got two responses very quickly.  Tubadude, who was dead on, and 
polite, said go elsewhere.
the other response was only a moment later, the sender should remain 
nameless, they are a list member and they sent me the program.

I am ambivalent about certain aspects of piracy, others I have rich 
opinions about.  I rarely find it necessary to force them on other 
people, but I can't help it.

My hope, honestly, was that Sensei (Eliezer Navarsky) and  Bill Fox 
would just put a lid on it, but it was to no avail.

Peace be with you Boris.

To the list:  I enjoy all your posts, generally a cool list.  Sorry if 
there were any hurt feelings.
