Hello Ed,

I don't disagree with you but you might use a better example. If I take a car out for a test drive for a few months and put 10k miles on it, I reduce it's value to the owner. Someone uses my software and doesn't pay me, it decreases my return on my investment in hardware/software/time. In my case I can usually use the materials, even some of the code, in another product. Please be assured, I in no way approve of taking anything I haven't earned.

Most of the professionals in this business I have meet over the last 20 years are pretty honest, I'm happy to say.

Regards,

Paige
