An old DEC buddy (Tom Parmenter) wrote in the what was probably the first
internet Blog "Desperado" something like the following:
" Forward with daring and whimsy. The Internet is the universal solvent of
intellectual property rights " while requesting attribution if you
forwarded his stuff.
He was right of course.
I was bounced years ago from Enigma2K for not contributing enough. That
was somewhat paradoxical as I had joined the group in order to read and
soak up enough to be able to contribute. The elitist attitude was
laughable then and even more so now where there are so many other sources
of "their" information.
At some point they'll become so secret they'll cease to exist and they'll
no longer be subject to the"wholesale abuse...." they stolidly suffer.
