i'll have to agree, making any copies is asking for serious trouble.
regardless of the obvious moral issues, i dont wanna see DC go bankrupt
from the rampant and free distribution of FSM's. i still have 35,000
miles left on my warranty dammit!!! ;-)
nevertheless, a great gesture, even if it was from <begin sinister
music> the fiery pits of hell <end sinister music>...and this should
serve as a reminder for all of us - the next time you want to record an
NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL game to watch at a later time, remember Title 17!!!
now i need to get to bed before this cough gets worse. looks like a Dr.
appt for
me...*cough*2001*cough*4.7*cough*FSM*cough*please*cough*...looks like
it's getting worse :(
this late-nite sarcasm has been brought to you by a reformed IRC
"discussion" junkie, and is in no way meant to hurt feelings or promote
or defend any certain viewpoint :)

Gary, just for your info, DC will not co-operate, they sued someone for

the cost to defend yourself far outways the need.
Punch
p.s. It was a nice thought though, just keep yourself out of trouble,
and send me a copy when your done, 1998 V6 for me thanks : )
