Dear Sick Puppy:

I sincerely hope your third year at Queens College might get into 
such advanced topics as ethics and security.    

Under the laws of the United States of America, individiuals are 
entitled to compensations for creative works.  If you haven't heard 
the term its called "copyright".  It's what allows creative people to 
remain creative instead of hamburger flippers...

I'd be suprized if you find NetWare running on VAX or IBM 3090's.
