Exactly what I mean.  It all seems to be coming from different people and 
cross pollinating itself.  What was funny is that some come with files that 
are executable and some are files that would be if you had the program but 
a few were just text files.

When you look at them from different angles, the picture becomes twisted 
and confusing to the consumer but actually makes sense to me.  I just don't 
understand why people have to have fun this way.  But what ever trips their 
trigger!
