No problem, I understand.

Oh, as someone who has had to go after numerous 
people who "stole" my artwork off my sites (and, 
in some cases, even went and sold it for their 
own profit on eBay!), I can totally understand 
and sympathize with anyone whose intellectual 
property rights have been infringed upon.

In that regard, any time any individual list 
member *publicly* makes available copyrighted 
("bootleg") material, they're opening themselves 
up to a knock on the door from law enforcement 
and/or a civil lawsuit from the copyright owner 
themselves. And with this being "my" list (so to 
speak), I'm also legally responsible for what I allow to go on here, too.

Again, I do hate to be a meanie about it, but if 
any of you see that happening on other lists (let 
alone publicly taking part in it), you might want 
to keep that in mind: each time you publicly 
offer up "bootleg" material, you're leaving a 
*PERMANENT* trail of your criminal activity, 
which could very well come back to haunt you any 
time, any day, even years or decades from now.

Caveat Particeps -- sharer beware!
