[PUP] Internet Sources of Maps, books, etc. Off-list response.

[Rick Redfern]

I have a question for Brian.

He will not not like or think of me as nice
after he thinks about his answer. As a
software developer and a former automotive
service manager, Brian, would you trust me to
work on your boat or car if you knew that
my tools were stolen? 
By the same token, would you trust me to
not steal from you to have me fix your computer
if you knew that most or all of my technical software
that I was using to "fix" your computer was also
stolen?
I don't want to know your answer as I already
know what your answer would be.
Piracy of software is a very big problem
here in the US. In Europe it is even worse.

Think about it.

Good luck. 
What goes around, comes around.
Be an example to others through your
words, deeds and actions. Another thought:
Are you example to your children?
Don't think they are watching EVERY move you make?
If so, you are deluding yourself and your children
