<DIV>Stealing a man's work (material probably from the Pierce Piano Atlas in
this case), strikes me as inappropriate behavior on the part of those that
insist upon sharing openly the product of someone else's hard gotten
gain, copyright protection and entitlement to ethical behavior. I don't
care if the man is dead and incapable of personal attempts at redress: I do not
know this for a fact, but I believe the family continues on with sale and
publication of the book. In any case, to broadcast information out of this
valuable resource for the free consumption of the masses constitutes
unethical behavior and aggrandizement plain and simple. We cannot regulate
behavior behind closed doors or monitor private communications, but to blatantly
support, abet, encourage, proliferate and engage in the wholesale exchange of
protected information via this public medium is wrong. </DIV>

<DIV>Like Paul Williams said (but did not put into the spirit of his
admonition, practice): "Get yourself a Pierce (<EM>Piano</EM>)
Atlas."</DIV>
