On further reflection, I am going to take your suggestions into account. In fact, given that I read Stallman's discourse on "Intellectual Property", and reviewed the definitions of "property" and "piracy", I could not truthfully have said that your advice had no effect. I have more information about these terms now and that information will affect my use of them in the future. If I use those terms again, I will reflect on what you suggest. Thanks for the feedback, and I apologize for not immediately recognizing it's value. Bob
