J. Dickey, Faculty of Mathematics, University of Waterloo. Since Mr. Dickey is absolutely silent about any of the other several dozen commentators on the subject of copyrights, I am forced to conclude that he really means: "Quit posting anything to this group that I disagree with." If Mr. Dickey is of the opinion that no discussion of copyrights belongs in this group, he should have said so. His failure to do so reveals his true motiviations, I suggest. - John M.

*** REAL-FLAME-NOT-FOR-THE-FAINT-OF-HEART *** Mr. Logajan non-cherished logic-mogul writes about Mr. Dickey's posting requesting removal of this discussion from comp.sys.atari.st: > Since Mr. Dickey is absolutely silent about any of the other > several dozen commentators on the subject of copyrights, I > am forced to conclude that he really means [something-deleted] Even worse the little hypocrite (Mr. Dickey) posts stuff about copyrights himself in comp.sys.atari.st. Mr. Logajan himself, creator of the Coercion discussion has with some really brain-damaged ideas tried to prove a point and failed and tried again and failed again (see following). I proclaim the discussion about Copyrights and Coercion hereby OVER. As any substance to it has been ELIMINATED. Thank you for tuning in to this discussion and Good Bye. Personal to Mr. Logajan: Please try comeback tries first to the loveletters and hatemail address down there, before corrupting innocent minds with this cruft. Thank you. *** END-OF-FLAME *** ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mr. Logajan wrote ... > The General Theory of Reciprocity: > Anyone who initiates action X toward another cannot then rationally > object to the application of equivalent action X toward himself. > [deleted] >4) Anyone who initiates the copying of software from another cannot object > to the copying of his software. (Logajan's case -- proved!) ( Copying in itself is not illegal and doesn't help us with the discussion about software & copyrights. Rephrase this..) Anyone who initiates the illegal copying of software from another cannot object to the illegal copying of his software. This says : "That a pirate shouldn't be pissed of if his (copyprotected) software is copyied illegally from someone else" Now , what does that have to do with Copyrights in the MAJORITY of cases ?
