unethical and illegal behavior on the part of some

[Porritt, David]

You win!  Is there a prize for the most outrageous idea?  Wim, it's the
law!!  It's US law, international law and even in effect in Hawaii!
You've published a book.  Do you want people to scan it and send it
everywhere?  Use your hat rack!

As you know the Pierce Piano Atlas is a world famous publication.  It is
the subject of registrations and copyrights obtained in the United
States and throughout the world. No part of the Pierce Piano Atlas may
be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form
or by any means -- electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording, or
otherwise --  without written permission of the publisher.  We
vigorously defend our valuable copyrights, and take instances of
infringement with the utmost seriousness.



Does this mean if a customer asks me what year her piano was made, I am
not allowed to give her that information, and include some info about
the piano, without first asking Larry?

I've got an idea. Why don't all of us call his office every time we want
to share information with one of our customers. Maybe a hundred phone
calls a day will let him ease off a little. 

Now, I agree that an electronically produced list of all the
manufacturers and serial numbers is illegal. But just one name and
number? Give me a break.

Wim
