Worse: _I_ am the 'fool who did not bother to ...', just because I had made the assumption that Macintoshes are wonderful machines that do not require one to read lengthy manuals. Must have been a misconception of mine too.. sorry >Of all the silly things said here recently about copyright, your >message is the silliest. No contest. Sorry for having an opinion and trying to express it. Sorry for choosing a lousy example to try to make myself clear. Sorry for failing to do so. > Oh, if I could only reach those lofty heights. Well, who stops you from trying? Scott Lindsey adds to that: > This really doesn't belong in this group anymore. He's right. Words are not just words. They should not be interpreted the way a computer parses and interprets the source code of a programming language. Please don't 'interpret' people's opinion's (or laws, for that matter) in a mechanical way (without 'understanding' - you know, reading between the lines -). That's pretty close to denying that such thing exists. Michel 'Mikki' Waucomont PostScript.um: EMI Manhattan's cover of The Kick Inside is MUCH nicer than the EMI UK cover. DISCLAIMER: THIS IS JUST MY FUCKING HUMBLE OPINION. DON'T FLAME ME FOR IT.
