So when the calendar flipped over to the 21st century that made it okay to steal?

If your answer is "yes", we won't accuse you of being "self-righteous". We'll just disagree with you.

If you think SF producers are "alive and well", you're an uninformed fool. Nothing could be further from the truth.

As for the comment, <I>"Producers come and go -- that's life -- whether because of piracy or other reasons. As far as I am concerned (and many others), producers who whine and can't take the heat can take a hike."</I>

Are you actually serious?

If your answer is yes,  I guess if you owed a store and we broke into your warehouse, stole all of your inventory, and handed it out to your potential customers for free, if you spoke out in protest, it would be okay for us to accuse you of "whining" and being "unable to take the heat", right?

Please. Get real.

I'd be willing to lay very long odds that stealing would no longer be acceptable -- even in the 21st century -- if you were the victim.

Here's some free advice, sport. Instead of coming here to call other prople "self-righteous" and talk about "diatribes", make a trip to the library and check out Aesop. Look for the story about the goose that laid the golden eggs. Maybe you'll gain some insight.
