Not breaking the law.  As it has been made clear on this list, none of
you guys are lawyers, and as a lawyer myself, I am not quite sure where
the idea came from on here that if you download a bible it is any more
illegal than using miro for youtube, or cbs.com.  This has been a myth
that has been perpetuated over and over until it's been accepted as
fact.

Do not accuse me of breaking the law when you are not even apparently
familiar with it, please.  If you do not want to help me with the
script, that is fine, but slandering people is not acceptable on this
list either, is it?
